This one-credit-per hour Group Learning activity has been certified by CFPC for up to one Mainpro+® credit for each webinar session.


Title: Natural Language Processing & its Role in Primary Care

Details: Dr. Noah Crampton is a family physician at the Toronto Western Family Health Team, a health informatician, and a lecturer in the Department of Family and Community Medicine at the University of Toronto. Dr. Crampton’s academic research is focused on the development and evaluation of point-of care software technology tools to improve the delivery of primary care, as well as on technical approaches to integration of patient-level data within a patient’s circle of care.

Dr. Crampton’s previous research includes analyzing the impact of the EMR on patient care, developing an educational program for trainees to learn about EMR data quality and data discipline, and studying how various AI-based technologies such as natural language processing and speech recognition are poised to transform the practice of family medicine. He is involved in developing the EMR data infrastructure for the University of Toronto’s practice-based research network (UTOPIAN), which aggregates EMR data from many clinics across the GTA into one database. In this webinar, Dr. Crampton will discuss the role of natural language processing and its role in primary care.
