@NwigweViemma with a 2nd presentation at #ACSCC2024! We objectively evaluated AI versus human-generated composite narrative for surgery clerkship students.

TLDR - using the QuAL score, AI was non-inferior to human-generated composites, and often times was superior!

Are you thinking about doing a surg ed fellowship?

What will you be expected to do? How will you be supported? How are programs different?

We explore the answers to these questions in the first study looking at the current fellowships in the U.S.
