Dr. Micky Cooner spoke to Dr. Jasper Burger about how he is using AI for digital scribing his patient notes. Jasper says it is a "game changer" and saves him so much time from manually taking notes to recording them, after patient consent, and adding them to the patient file with 1 click (to paste notes). "Keep pushing the boundaries", he says and there is a bright future with technology.

Dr. Manpreet (Micky) Cooner talks to Dr. Roger Strasser, Interim Dean and Dr. Sarah Strasser, Interim Vice-Dean about the new SFU Medical School in Surrey, British Columbia.

SFU plans to create a program where medical students and residents learn in team-based primary care settings, which are patient-centred and consider social, environmental, and prevention contexts. First Nations, Inuit and Métis knowledge systems and perspectives will be embedded throughout the school, with strong connections to remote, rural, and Indigenous communities. http://www.sfu.ca/vpacademic/sfu-medical-school.html
