Free webinar:  Making sense of AI in clinical practice

Title :Making sense of AI in clinical practice: context, agency, and the changing therapeutic relationship

Join MACP for a free member webinar with Associate Professor Michael Rowe (University of Lincoln) exploring what AI means for physiotherapy practice, not as hype or threat, but as a condition of contemporary clinical work that practitioners can engage with deliberately and on their own terms.

Date: Wednesday 13 May 2026

Time: 7:00–8:00pm

Location: Free via Zoom (link sent before the event)

This session moves beyond "AI is coming" to ask a more practical question: how do you shape your relationship with AI, rather than feel like it's something that's happening to you? Drawing on current evidence about AI performance in clinical contexts and a framework developed for health professionals, the session covers the practical implications for clinical decision-making, documentation, patient communication, and the therapeutic relationship.

Presenter: Assoc Prof. Michael Rowe, Director of Teaching and Learning, University of Lincoln

Host: Ross Mallett
