Proud Mentor Moment. Dr. Catherine Scipion (Post-Doc) had a recent article featured. Her article evaluates barriers and facilitators to clinical implementation or adoption of AI. aiin.healthcare/topics/artif...

Researchers identify ‘universal determinants of AI acceptance’ among healthcare workers

What attributes tend to nudge clinicians toward accepting AI into their work lives? Several, of course—but the most broadly determinative can be trimmed to just two.

A leader in the field. I had the honor of meeting Dr. Beauchamp at an ASBH mentorship brunch. Months later he took me to lunch while I was in DC. He was kind - supportive and encouraging. Much of the wisdom he provided all those years ago has stuck with me. We are a better field because of him.

Message to journal editors, conference organizers, etc:

If the government suppresses a submission, print blank pages in the journal, put up a blank poster, have a minute of silence where the podium presentation would have gone. Print only the reason for the blank item.
