This presentation will explore the role of AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) in transforming biomedical discovery and healthcare. It highlights real-world applications like improving PubMed searches (Best Match, Nature Biotechnology 2018), supporting precision medicine (LitVar, Nature Genetics 2023), and assisting patient-to-trial matching (TrialGPT, Nature Communications, 2024). This presentation will also address the challenges and limitations of using AI/LLMs in this field.

The guest speaker is Dr. Zhiyong Lu, PhD FACMI, FIAHSI, a tenured Senior Investigator at the NIH, leading research in AI, machine learning, and multimodal data analysis. He is also Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and Associate Editor for the journal JAMIA and Bioinformatics. 

The class is worth 1.00 hour of MLA CE credit. Region 6, which includes Illinois, is the sponsor.
