NEJM’s latest review highlights a global crisis, young doctors are spending less than 13% of their time with real patients, leading to declining bedside skills.
The 15th AIG GI Surgical Clinics Program is built to reverse this trend.

Disclaimer: Statement for Discussion Sake.
Currently, state-of-the-art medical practice is a sequel of research and publication by approx 1% of Innovators & Researchers, which has been propagated by 9% of Educators/Early Adapters, and finally gets practiced by 90% of all the Practitioners.
The question here is will AI help in the transposition of these Propagators and Practitioners into Researchers and thereby change/accelerate the pace of translational research in medicine? Amplifying the process of benchside research to bedside patient care?
Would love to have your opinion on this.

They didn’t just lift the World Cup — they lifted a nation’s dream!
