Himmelfarb Library is offering a limited-time trial of Dyna AI, available through April 22, 2025! Test this resource for yourself and send us your feedback! Please send any questions, comments, or feedback about this resource to Ian Roberts (imroberts@gwu.edu).
Want to give Dyna AI a try? Follow these steps to access the free trial:
- Access DynaMed (also linked from Himmelfarb's homepage)
- If you haven't already created a personal account, you'll see a screen that offers you the opportunity to personalize DynaMed. Click the blue button to personalize and complete the brief form with your name, speciality, physician role, etc.
- Once you've created your personalized DynaMed account, you'll have access to the Dyna AI trial and can simply ask a question in the search bar.
What is DynaAI? Dyna AI combines trusted, expert-curated, evidence-based content with advanced AI technology to generate clinical responses to questions. It integrates DynaMed content with a large language model (LLM) using a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) approach. Dyna AI summarizes evidence-based content from peer-reviewed journals and high-quality clinical practice guidelines included in DynaMed. It does not pull from sources outside of DynaMed or unvetted sources.
To use Dyna AI, enter a query in the search bar. Dyna AI is automatically enabled for Himmelfarb users during our trial (through April 22, 2025). Dyna AI can be disabled in the "Dyna AI Settings" at the top right of the page by selecting "Do not show Dyna AI" to disable AI-generated responses.
For best results when using Dyna AI:
- Ask Detailed Questions: Dyna AI provides more relevant responses to more specific questions. For example, instead of using "atrial fibrillation treatment" as your search query, ask "rate vs rhythm control atrial fibrillation HFrEF."
- Use Follow-Up Questions: After an initial question such as "What is the approach to evaluating a complicated urinary tract infection in female adults?" you might add "expected urine culture findings" or "first-line antibiotic options."
- Revise Questions: Small changes to questions can lead to different responses.
- Avoid Entering Protected Health Information
We want to hear what you think of Dyna AI! Give it a test drive through April 22, 2025, and send your feedback to Ian Roberts (imroberts@gwu.edu).
