Medical knowledge now doubles every 73 days, creating a gap doctors can't bridge alone. What if you could use new AI tools to help find the answers?

Are you, or a loved one, navigating a complex health journey? The old model of "doctor's orders" is being replaced by a new "patient as partner" model—and AI is the tool that makes it possible.

Join technologist Andrew Stafford and EVMS physician-researcher Atiq Bhatti, MD, for a groundbreaking 60-minute talk.

What you'll learn

  • How to safely use tools like ChatGPT and Gemini for your own health research.
  • The "trust barrier" that keeps doctors from using AI—and how it's being solved.
  • A look at the new, doctor-specific AI tools like Open Evidence and UpToDate Expert AI that are changing medicine right now.
  • How patients, nurses, and small practice owners—not just giant hospitals—are at the center of this revolution.

This talk is for empowered patients, healthcare staff (NPs/nurses), small practice owners, and anyone curious about the future of medicine.

​​We look forward to seeing you there and building a vibrant AI community in the 757 area!
