Welcome to the Department of Clinical Education at California Northstate University College of Medicine!
As Chair of Clinical Education and Director of Informatics, I am honored to work alongside our dedicated clinical faculty, mentors, and community partners to provide an educational environment that bridges knowledge with clinical practice and fosters both skill and professional identity. As medicine evolves rapidly through advances in electronic health records, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies, we are committed to preparing our students to understand and use these tools thoughtfully and responsibly while preserving the human connection at the heart of medicine.
