Van Eck chats the ‘promise and peril of AI’ in debut episode of UND’s Health In Action podcast

The Health In Action podcast from the UND School of Medicine & Health Sciences Dean’s Office is now live!

In our debut episode, SMHS Dean Dr. Marjorie Jenkins talks with the School’s Associate Dean for Teaching & Learning, Richard Van Eck. In his role as chair of the School’s Artificial Intelligence Committee (AIC), Van Eck spoke with Dr. Jenkins about the transformational changes that artificial intelligence and machine learning have already produced in health care and health care education, and the challenge of integrating AI as it continues to evolve.
