Existing work – Aesclepia patient bots

The Aesclepia patient bots were developed by Oztron Media for Monash University, for inter-professional learning between pharmacy and medical students.
Students interview the bots in pharmacy student or medical student groups, then discuss with the other group what diagnosis they have arrived at and why.

A few notes;

  • Visually appealing.
  • One thing this project has struggled with is training the AI bots – which requires that both pharmacy and medical students trial the software extensively.  Getting large numbers of students with free time in these areas is challenging.
  • We need to look at alternate chat systems if we are to use a more natural chat style of learning.
