This week at Yale School of Medicine (YSM): Researchers test tools to help identify inaccurate antibiotic allergies; a study uncovers genetic differences associated with painful endometriosis; ambient AI scribes do not impair medical students' clinical note writing.
Read on to learn more about discoveries from YSM:
- Risk Stratification Tools Can Help Correct Inaccurate Antibiotic Allergies: Yale researchers assessed the performance of tools to help identify patients who may be incorrectly noted as having antibiotic allergies. Their findings were published in JAMA Network Open.
- New Study Helps Explain How Endometriosis Causes Pain: Yale researchers have uncovered genetic differences that distinguish cases of endometriosis with pain. The findings, published in Molecular Human Reproduction, may inform better treatments for pain.
- How Ambient AI Scribes Impact Medical Students: In a Q&A, Jaideep Talwalkar, MD, discusses research published in JMIR Medical Education on the impact of ambient AI scribes on medical student clinical note writing, and how to apply this technology in education.
- Uncovering the Science Underlying Childhood Anxiety: YSM researchers are improving the treatment of childhood anxiety by investigating all aspects of the disorder, from child-parent interactions to genetic and molecular factors.
- ARPA-H Award Supports Research on Stress-Related Behavioral Health: The Yale Stress Center has been awarded up to a $10.3 million contract to develop AI-based tools and individual risk signatures for stress-related behavioral health illnesses.
- Multigenerational Yale Legacy Fuels $1 Million for Cancer Research at YSM: Bernard “Bernie” Bober’s $1 million gift to Yale School of Medicine fuels cancer research, inspired by his and his family’s own cancer experiences.
