Overview

Randomized trial examines ethical reflections on AI-supported precision medicine in medical education, suggesting enhanced engagement with ethical considerations.

Key Points

  • This study aims to explore how the SPARK activity facilitates discussions on ethical and societal implications of precision medicine.
  • Analyzed qualitative and descriptive-quantitative data from two university workshops in Norway.
  • Participants included students in medicine and bioethics engaging in scenario-based discussions.
  • Utilized structured scenarios, information cards, and issue prompts to guide small-group deliberations.
  • Participants initially viewed precision medicine in technical terms, shifting to discuss fairness and resource allocation during discussions.
  • The SPARK format enabled articulation of trade-offs and competing priorities in group dynamics.
  • The activity made ethical tensions explicit, fostering rich discussions without resolving disagreements.
