Wonder what we are up to at #AMIA2024 ? We hope you will join us at our sessions on LLMs, predictive analytics, human factors, and more! University of Wisconsin Department of Medicine UW School of Medicine and Public Health Univ. of Wisconsin Emergency Medicine UW-Madison Critical Care Medicine Data Science Lab

Here are some reflections on many studies we did this year. Tons of progress has been made, but there are still safety concerns..🧐 We are going to be at #EMNLP2024 🏖️ Happy to chat and connect! 📃huggingface.co/blog/shanchen/… 🔊tinyurl.com/aimpodcast24 Danielle Bitterman, MD jack gallifant

🩺💡The Bitterman lab has spend much of the past year researching #LLMs for healthcare. This post summarizes our inroads into making LLMs safer and reliable for clinicians and patients: huggingface.co/blog/shanchen/…. We'll be at #EMNLP2024 - come chat if you have similar interests!

A day of presenting many of our NLP work at AMIA! P1: our JBI paper on role of UMLS supporting DDx by LLM P3: Multi-modal ML for clinical prediction P4: Human&Auto Eval for LLM Diagnosis prediction #AMIA2024 UW-Madison Critical Care Medicine Data Science Lab Majid Afshar

🤖Are LLMs good at tabular medical data? 🥼Can they be useful for medical machine learning tasks and beat classical ML setup? #EMNLP2024 Stop by our poster Nov 14 (Thu), session 12, 14:00-15:30 Paper available🎉: aclanthology.org/2024.findings-… LARK NLP Lab UW-Madison Critical Care Medicine Data Science Lab

☀️had a great #EMNLP2024 ! thanks for stopping by our poster! I really enjoyed answering the questions and discussion on LLM embeddings for EHR and clinical tasks ⚕️🏥 🧩happy to see that the hype of #LLMs cools down a bit and foundational #NLP problems are back!

This is a great opportunity to work with a brilliant PI…don’t miss your chance

Epic staff are also contributing to the science behind this work—like in this recent npj Journals paper on evaluating AI-generated clinical summaries. Lots more to do on this front. nature.com/articles/s4440…

Thanks for the mention, Epic! Our Clinical Informatics team is thrilled to be a part of this collaboration. Majid Afshar UW-Madison Critical Care Medicine Data Science Lab Joel Gordon Peter Kleinschmidt University of Wisconsin Department of Medicine

Doctors and researchers at the UW-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health have developed an artificial intelligence tool to ensure some of our most vulnerable patients, those battling opioid use disorder, don't fall through the cracks. channel3000.com/news/ai-screen…

🎉 How can we use AI for good in addiction care? Our new study in Nature Medicine shows an AI tool successfully screens for opioid use disorder—reducing hospital readmissions and costs! 🔗lnkd.in/g7--HrPN 🔗lnkd.in/gGQmTk9P 📺lnkd.in/gaEbh3tx NIDAnews

See our JMIR AI article by Dr. Rahman & team! Chest X-rays hold hidden clues to patient deterioration. In a 22K-patient study, Densenet121 beat other models in predicting ICU transfer and patient mortality. Medical Imaging + AI = powerful early warning: ai.jmir.org/2025/1/e67144

Big shoutout to Dr. Majid Afshar Majid Afshar of University of Wisconsin Department of Medicine, Dr. Brian Patterson of Univ. of Wisconsin Emergency Medicine, and PhD student Emma Croxford of UW BMI for representing UW–Madison at Epic’s XGM in front of hundreds at the Physician Advisory Council! 👏🎆 UW Applied Clinical Informatics (1/4)

What a fun and important collaboration with Epic to build such an important open-source tool for evaluating ChatGPT outputs in healthcare. Evaluation is a must to understand how we can integrate AI safely and effectively into our practice - check it out! UW-Madison Critical Care Medicine Data Science Lab

Beyond the perhaps superficial semantic distinction between "reasoning" and "pattern matching", there is a fundamental gap in the practical capabilities and behavior of these systems. You don't create an invention machine by iterating on an automation machine.
