OpenEvidence and Johns Hopkins Medicine Announce Landmark Collaboration to Design the Future of Medicine and Medical Education in the Age of AI

MIAMI & BALTIMORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 13, 2026--

OpenEvidence, the most popular AI for doctors in the United States, today announced a strategic collaboration with Johns Hopkins Medicine (JHM) to reimagine medical education and clinical care in the age of artificial intelligence. The collaboration spans two foundational pillars: preparing the next generation of clinicians for the future in which they will practice and ensuring every patient receives care grounded in the latest, evidence-based clinical guidelines. Ultimately, this is about using AI to serve what has always mattered most – better outcomes for patients.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261013258773/en/

The collaboration begins from the shared conviction that the emerging transformation in medicine requires a deliberate reimagination of both education and clinical practice. As AI becomes capable of surfacing and synthesizing the world's medical knowledge in seconds, the role of the clinician shifts toward what cannot be automated: first-principles reasoning, clinical and contextual judgment, and the deeply human work of caring for patients.

Johns Hopkins established the current model of medical education in the United States more than a century ago. OpenEvidence, the most widely adopted medical AI in the United States, has transformed how physicians access and interact with medical knowledge. Together, OpenEvidence and Johns Hopkins will design a medical education model that strengthens foundational principles -- a deep understanding of pathophysiology, evidence-based medicine, clinical reasoning from first principles, and the diagnostic and interpersonal skills at the heart of capable and compassionate care -- while creating novel adaptive AI systems that prepare physicians to lead, and continuously learn, in an AI native environment. Just as Johns Hopkins defined the standard for 20th-century medical training, the two organizations aim to define what rigorous, patient-centered medical education looks like in the AI era.

"Johns Hopkins designed modern medical education around a simple idea: that physicians learn medicine at the bedside, grounded in science and reasoning. The arrival of AI, in many ways, invites us back to the bedside with new tools and capabilities we have yet to fully imagine. Working with OpenEvidence enables us to design and inspire, very deliberately, the model of education and the practice of medicine for this new era," said Sanjay Desai, MD, MACP, Vice Dean for Education, Johns Hopkins Medicine.

"The question in front of medicine is not whether AI will change the physician's role — it is who will define that change, and on what principles," said Travis Zack, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of OpenEvidence. "We believe the future of medicine should be built, not reacted to, and that it must keep patients at the center. There is no institution better suited to build it with than Johns Hopkins, the birthplace of modern medical education."

Together Open Evidence and Johns Hopkins Medicine will also develop human-first AI systems designed to improve care delivery – surfacing and synthesizing the best available evidence in the context of the patient's own medical history and best practices established at Johns Hopkins Medicine. Sophisticated AI will empower clinicians to more quickly reason through that information, contextualize it, and make the best decision for their patient.

“Johns Hopkins clinicians always strive to deliver the best care in the world. This collaboration with OpenEvidence is an opportunity to build on that — giving them tools that make every encounter more informed, more precise, and more attuned to the individual patient in front of them,” said Sara Murray, MD, MAS, Chief Medical Informatics & AI Officer, Johns Hopkins Medicine.

President Donald Trump’s diesel deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin has been criticized by both Republicans and Democrats as fueling Russia’s war against Ukraine, violating existing U.S. laws and drawing the U.S. closer to Russia. It joins a growing list of instances where the president has sided with Putin, often at the expense of Ukraine — and U.S. interests.

Most Americans think Donald Trump is profiting off the presidency in unethical or illegal ways and is focused more on his wealth than helping people like them, a new AP-NORC poll finds.

Trump on Tuesday is planning to devote a big chunk of his dwindling time ahead of crucial midterm elections to fly all the way to Alaska, attempting to bolster a Republican incumbent senator in another sign that the GOP fears losing control of Congress.

The Latest:

The House speaker recently told CBS News that win or lose the House majority, he plans to run again to lead House Republicans in the party’s internal elections this fall.

“In the unlikely scenario where we lost the majority, I would expect my colleagues would ask me to continue leading this conference,” Johnson told CBS News.

Johnson, who is crisscrossing the country to campaign for Republicans, caught attention last week after having quipped to Fox News that if Republicans lose power he may return to his Shreveport, Louisiana hometown and start a lawn care business, if that’s God’s plan for him.

The speaker remains upbeat that House Republicans will retain their majority despite what’s traditionally a difficult midterm election for the party in power.

Congress approved legislation in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in spring of 2022 to ban the import of Russian energy products as the financial fuel for Putin’s military assaults. It passed the House 414-17 and unanimously passed the Senate before President Joe Biden signed it.

The law says the president can seek to lift the prohibition only if an agreement has been reached to withdraw Russian troops from Ukraine and cease military activity — and even then such a proposal would need to be reviewed by Congress and to have been “accepted by the free and independent government of Ukraine.”

“Trump is directly violating that law,” said Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas, the bill’s chief sponsor, in a statement Monday.

Last month, Congress approved a sweeping Russian sanctions bill, named after the late GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham, that would slap tariffs on countries that continue importing Russian oil. Trump signed the bill into law.

A protester wearing a “Release The Epstein Files” shirt disrupted Trump’s Ohio rally on Monday night.

Before the person was escorted from the event, video showed other attendees grabbing, shoving and pulling the protester’s hair.

The president mocked the protester from the stage and said people who disrupt his rallies are “scum.”

Messages seeking more information were left with the Youngstown police and Mahoning County sheriff’s office.

Zacharia officially started the job on Monday and watched from the sidelines as Trump answered questions from reporters as he departed the White House for a campaign trip to Ohio.

Her first press briefing was scheduled for 9:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Zacharia is a conservative commentator and had been a communications adviser to the media company that Trump owns and operates his social media site.

Trump announced her appointment last week. Zacharia succeeds Karoline Leavitt, who stepped down in August following the birth of her second child.

Republican officials and conservative social media users spread unfounded rumors in recent days that state Rep. James Talarico, the Democratic nominee in a competitive Texas Senate race, had suffered a mental health crisis.

Questions about Talarico’s whereabouts began spreading after the candidate was not seen in public for nine days. But he and his campaign have repeatedly attributed his absence to the flu.

Here’s a closer look at the facts:

CLAIM: Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico was being treated in an Ohio mental health facility last week.

THE FACTS: This is false. The facility where he was said to have been treated has denied he was ever a patient there. Both he and his campaign have said he was recovering from the flu. Talarico has type 1 diabetes, which means he has a higher risk of developing complications from the flu. Regardless, Talarico’s schedule doesn’t align with what was presented as evidence of his stay at the mental health facility and images reviewed by The Associated Press showed Talarico at home over several days last week.

U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes on Monday ordered a 24-hour halt to tree-cutting at the East Potomac Golf Course, a historic D.C. course that has been part of President Donald Trump’s plans to remake the city.

Reyes issued the order following a tense three-hour hearing in which she harshly criticized the government for having deceived her with its actions over the holiday weekend.

Reyes said the 24-hour temporary order could be extended to 14 days if necessary. It was limited to one day while the government tries to find a key Trump administration official to discuss why a massive tree-cutting at the park needed to occur over the holiday weekend, with little notification to plaintiffs in a lawsuit trying to halt renovation plans or the judge.

It’s the latest example of the erosion of trust between the government and the independent judiciary, as the Trump administration tries to steamroll scrutiny of its actions, from the White House ballroom to immigration enforcement.

It’s a long way from Washington, has a small population and hasn’t backed a Democrat for Senate in nearly 20 years.

Yet Trump on Tuesday will devote a big chunk of his dwindling time ahead of crucial midterm elections to head all the way to Alaska — attempting to bolster a Republican incumbent senator in another sign of GOP fears about retaining control of Congress after Election Day on Nov. 3.

Trump is headlining a rally for Sen. Dan Sullivan in Wasilla, about 45 miles (72 kilometers) north of Anchorage — famous for being the hometown of former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin and the headquarters of the Iditarod sled dog race across the state.

Trump’s stop is part of a western swing also taking him to rallies in Arizona and Montana on Wednesday.

“Dan Sullivan’s a great senator,” Trump said last week, adding, “You look at the things he’s done. He would call me all the time because I think — I definitely know — nobody has helped Alaska like Donald Trump.”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stood before Donald Trump during his first term at the White House and pointed a finger, declaring that with this president, “All roads lead to Putin.”

The stark assessment years ago from Pelosi echoed anew after Trump’s surprise announcement last week that he struck a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin to import tons of Russian diesel to the U.S. as a way to ease sky-high prices at the pumps for Americans ahead of the midterm elections.

Trump’s diesel deal with Putin has been criticized by both Republicans and Democrats as fueling Russia’s war against Ukraine, violating existing U.S. laws and drawing the U.S. closer to Russia. It joins a growing list of instances where the president has sided with Putin, often at the expense of Ukraine — and America’s own standing.

“The harm to the Ukrainians is real,” said William Taylor, a former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, now a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, in an interview Monday.

“And the cost to us, the United States, is high.”
