Sam Houston State University College of Osteopathic Medicine (SHSU-COM) has been awarded $25,000 through the Innovations in Graduate Medical Education (GME) Development Grant from the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM). The three-year award will support a new initiative, AI Across Residency, focused on bringing artificial intelligence training into residency programs.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is already showing up in healthcare, helping with diagnosis, patient communication and everyday clinical work. But while many doctors in residency may have been exposed to AI tools, few have received formal education on how to evaluate and use them in practice as the technology evolves.
At its core, AI Across Residency focuses on helping physicians learn how to use emerging technology in ways that support patient care, not distract from it. As more healthcare systems adopt new tools, doctors trained to use them effectively can help reduce delays, improve efficiency and support better outcomes, especially in rural and underserved communities.
