AI in Clinical Research Internship

Program Description

The AI in Clinical Research Internship is a one-month, hands-on Project-Based Learning (PBL) program designed to help students, researchers, and healthcare professionals integrate Artificial Intelligence into modern clinical research workflows.

Participants will learn how AI can support every stage of the research lifecycle—from literature analysis and protocol development to study design, predictive analytics, evidence synthesis, and scientific publication. Through real-world healthcare case studies and AI-powered research tools, learners will gain practical experience in designing intelligent clinical studies and generating publication-ready outputs.

What You Will Learn

During this internship, you will develop practical skills in:

- Foundations of AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), RAG AI, and AI Agents
- AI-powered prompt engineering for clinical research
- Designing observational and interventional clinical studies
- Cross-sectional, cohort, case-control, feasibility, and pilot study designs
- Prevention, diagnostic, decentralized, and adaptive clinical trials
- AI-assisted protocol development and study planning
- Literature intelligence and evidence extraction
- Predictive analytics for healthcare decision-making
- Clinical data interpretation using AI
- Systematic reviews and meta-analysis with AI support
- Scientific manuscript writing using AI-assisted workflows
- Research publication ethics and citation management
