Acing the Fundamentals of Radiology: An Online Series for Medical Students and Interns
Purpose The current undergraduate radiology education predominantly integrates radiology with other disciplines during preclerkship years and is often taught by nonradiologists. Early exposure to radiology and profound understanding of scientific fundamentals of imaging modalities and techniques are essential for a better understanding and interest in the specialty. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic–related impact on in-person medical education aggravated the need for alternative virtual teaching initiatives to provide essential knowledge to medical students. Methods The authors designed an online 7-session c...

The Implications of the Current Visa System for Foreign Medical Graduates During and After Graduate Medical Education Training
AbstractThe current and projected deficit in the physician workforce in the US is a challenge for primary care and specialty medical settings. Foreign medical graduates (FMGs) represent an important component of the US graduate medical education (GME) training pathway and can help to address the US physician workforce deficit. Availability of FMGs is particularly important to the internal medicine community, as recent data demonstrate that internal medicine is the specialty with the highest number of FMGs. System-based and logistical inefficiencies in the current US visa system represent significant obstacles to FMG traine...
