AI Clinic Info:
EIPM's bi-weekly sessions (Wednesdays at 2pm-3pm) aim to enhance how we use LLMs for complex tasks, including coding. They will serve as a collaborative space for hands-on troubleshooting, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning.
Who is this for? This clinic is designed for our entire scientific and clinical community, with a special emphasis on trainees (students, postdocs, residents and fellows). It is the perfect forum for:
Researchers and Scientists looking to apply LLMs to data analysis, coding challenges, or manuscript writing.Clinicians interested in exploring how AI tools can securely optimize research and workflows.Trainees seeking a supportive, hands-on environment to learn and get guidance on applying advanced LLMs to their specific projects.What participants can expect from these sessions:
Collaborate with our most LLM-proficient team members (“Super-Users”) to troubleshoot and refine their work.Present real challenges they are encountering (e.g., coding issues, complex prompts, workflow optimization).Potentially share “micro-presentations” when someone discovers a new model, feature, or technique.Our goals are to:
Build internal expertise and share best practices. Help participants overcome real technical challenges, and create a community of practice around practical AI use.
We are currently seeking Super-Users who demonstrate expertise in coding and experience with AI tools such as Chat GPT 5.2, Gemini 3.0, & Claude 4.5 Opus. We are also seeking participants who are looking for troubleshooting guidance.
All skill levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced users.
Reach out to Victoria Cummings (vjc4001@med.cornell.edu) should you have any questions or inquiries.

Our symposium, funded by Cornell's Office of Academic Integration, aims to create a broader awareness of AI advances at Cornell, and promote and strengthen collaborations. We anticipate that 100+ Cornell faculty members will join the two-day event to bridge the strengths in Ithaca with the clinical and technological environment in New York City.
