New funding for Thompson and Emory Family Medicine Residency Program
Dr. Kim Thompson is a co-investigator for the American Medical Association (AMA)–supported project on Individualized Learning Plans for Precision Education. Dr. Thompson is the current Chair of the Georgia Family Medicine Residency Collaborative.
The five core investigators of this Georgia project team will meet quarterly in Chicago with the larger AMA cohort of awardees. The Georgia group is working with evaluators, faculty coaches, and IT partners to develop AI-enhanced dashboards and a statewide individualized learning plan (ILP) framework that will link clinical performance data with structured learning goals for residents.
The goal is to support more personalized and data-informed training, consistent with the direction being encouraged by the American Board of Family Medicine. While the initial focus is on family medicine residency training, Dr. Thompson’s hope is that the tools and lessons from this work can eventually be adapted for other specialties as well.
