A 60-hour artificial intelligence training program for academic staff at the Faculty of Health Sciences took place from 2 to 13 November 2026 as part of a project supported by the Çukurova Development Agency.

Our Faculty completed the training program as part of its project “Artificial Intelligence Integration and Academic Capacity Building in Health Sciences.” The program followed a train-the-trainer model to help academic staff use artificial intelligence as a research tool in their own disciplines, apply it in their teaching and research, and share what they learned with their students.

Faculty members attended the two-week training in Classroom C101 at the Faculty of Health Sciences. The five modules covered decision support systems and predictive modeling, scientific data literacy and data curation, generative AI for academic writing and patient education, methodological design for clinical image and signal analysis, and AI-integrated project design and grant management. Professor Ali Akdağlı and Associate Professor Ali Arı delivered the training.

Through the train-the-trainer approach, participants will apply what they learned to course content, graduate supervision, and new grant proposals in their departments, helping build lasting expertise in artificial intelligence across the Faculty.

We thank Professor Ali Akdağlı and Associate Professor Ali Arı for delivering the training, the Çukurova Development Agency for supporting the project, and all academic staff who participated.
