The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a marked impact on psychiatry.

Chances and challenges of increasing digitalization of teaching in the discipline anesthesiology from the perspective of students

Therefore, a possible solution in the future could be the introduction of the "inverted classr...
