Clinical Professor and Chair of the Division of Cardiology, Jason Kaplan, DO ’13, has been named PCOM's Coordinator for AI Strategy. As AI continues to shape the future of medicine, Dr. Kaplan emphasizes the importance of using AI as a tool to support, rather than replace, clinical judgment and independent thinking.

"We want students to use AI to enhance their understanding while preserving the core diagnostic reasoning and problem-solving skills essential to medical practice."

In his new role, Dr. Kaplan will focus on helping students and faculty understand and responsibly integrate emerging AI technologies into medical education and clinical practice.

In PCOM’s anatomy lab, students go from the textbook to hands-on donor-based learning. While studying the body’s structure, they learn to view their donor as their first patient, an experience that builds both anatomical knowledge and a sense of responsibility for the human body.

“You can look at as many pictures as you want, but there’s no substitute for experiencing what the human body feels and looks like until you’re physically there."

Build confidence in the anatomy lab with advice from our faculty and students. Click the link: https://tinyurl.com/nc9dpk33
