Presenter
Martin G. Tolsgaard
My work involves the use of technologies, such as simulation or artificial intelligence (AI) to augment clinical performances. I did my PhD within the field of clinical learning and in my postdoc and doctoral dissertation I explored the use and cost of simulation technology for clinical skills training and assessment.
Over the past 5 years, I have led a research group exploring how to use AI for augmenting learning and performance. This has resulted in empirical and conceptual work on the use AI in medical education and in obstetric imaging as well as practical guides on how to use AI for improving clinical skills and performances.
