Dr Jawahar Thomas currently works part-time as a General Practitioner at Merrylands, having achieved fellowship with the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners through examination. This role represents a significant chapter in his life, shaping much of his professional journey.

Following a stroke that led to doubts about his return to medical practice, Dr Thomas dedicated himself to professional development at Monash University. It was during this time that he discovered a profound interest in the learning sciences and artificial intelligence.

Dr Thomas focused particularly on Q&A systems, large language models, and patient avatars, successfully integrating these fields to enhance educational experiences and improve information retrieval. His exploration led him to the concept of assessment for learning within medicine, which has proven beneficial in non-observational training methods, thereby enhancing how medical professionals acquire and apply knowledge.

He has been awarded an Australian Patent for his innovative contributions and remains committed to standardising medical education worldwide, ensuring that the same level of expertise is accessible to the poorest and most disenfranchised communities.
