Institute for Innovations in Medical Education

We combine the science of education with informatics solutions to transform teaching, learning, and assessment.

Founded in 2013, the Institute for Innovations in Medical Education is a multidisciplinary team of faculty educators, education scientists, informaticians, and developers who apply the science of education and informatics to transform teaching, learning, evaluation, and assessment at every level of NYU Langone. With more than 30 full-time staff, we are one of the largest medical education innovation groups in the country.

We combine advances in educational strategies with new informatics solutions to connect the three missions of NYU Langone—to serve, teach, and discover—resulting in a research and innovation program that is translational and provides direct benefits to our learners and patients.

Using educational big data, we drive new models to support individualized learning across NYU Grossman School of Medicine’s accelerated three-year MD program and dual MD/master’s degree pathways. Curricular innovation informed by educational and clinical data aligns our teaching with the evolving demands of medical practice.
