Creating Value in CME/CE Content with Generative-AI
In this episode, I spoke with Sean Sodha, founder of medical content platform Grafi AI, about the promise and pitfalls of generative AI for healthcare content creators. Sean shared his unique perspective on navigating this emerging technology. We take a comprehensive look at the role of generative AI in medical content creation and explore its promise for augmenting human skills and improving productivity in the medical writing space.Key TakeawaysGenerative AI can greatly accelerate drafting and ideation, but always requires human review. Gen-AI creates a first draft, not a final product.Prompt engineering could become less necessary as platforms improve at inferring users' needs and styles. Still, thoughtful prompts produce better results.Look for gen-AI providers focused specifically on healthcare to address nuances around compliance, accuracy, empathy, and privacy.Thoroughly vet platforms on explainability, recency, relevance, and uncertainty to ensure responsible AI practices.When testing generative AI, use fake data rather than real person information to safeguard privacy. Steps for EducatorsConsider gen-AI to streamline early phases of content creation like outlining.Remain mindful of how use of AI is communicated to learners. Focus on intended benefits.Advocate for transparent AI practices by creators to build trust.Connect with SeanGrafi.aiLinkedInResourcesBioGPT: a useful tool or cause for concern? The Publication Plan.

Brains and Drills: What to Expect with DBS Surgery
In this episode, Larry and his partner, Rebecca, discuss what to expect right before, during, and after DBS surgery. The surgery is scheduled for October 24th, 2023, and this episode was recorded about two weeks before the surgery.
The episode covers the pre-surgery preparations, including the need to stop medication before the surgery, and an informative description of the MRI process. Nurse Nancy, who works at British Columbia's DBS clinic, provides insights into the surgery day, which involves anchoring a frame to the patient's head, drilling small holes in the skull, and testing electrode placement to ensure optimal DBS results. The conversation also touches on battery replacement and the possibility of technology upgrades over time.
Nurse Nancy emphasizes the importance of closely monitoring the battery and making adjustments as needed. The recovery period is discussed, with a recommendation to take it easy for about six weeks to allow the brain to heal before turning on the stimulator. The potential reduction in medication is mentioned, with an emphasis on gradual adjustments to ensure a balance between symptom control and medication side effects. The episode provides a detailed and insightful overview of the DBS procedure and what patients can expect throughout the process.

#222: Encore Episode: How to Create a Vision for Your Professional and Personal Life
Do you have a vision for your life personally and professionally? In the work we do with leaders we often find they don’t have a clear vision for their life.
Without a clear vision it’s difficult to feel personally aligned, to make mindful choices, or to know what actions to take.
As Yogi Berra says, “You got to be careful, if you don’t know where you are going, ‘cause you might not get there”. You end up feeling frustrated, full of regret, and wondering “how did I get here?”
In today’s episode, we are sharing with you how to create a clear vision for your personal and professional life, so you can be a TRU (Thriving, Resilient, Unstoppable) leader.
