In Business Madison: UW researchers developing AI coach to train doctors

To help newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit who have trouble breathing, researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health are developing an artificial intelligence-based “digital mentor” to train doctors.

To improve their breathing, a high-risk intubation, where a doctor places a breathing tube in a baby’s windpipe so a machine can help them breathe, is often needed.
