Global health education in U.S. Medical schools
Interest in global health (GH) among medical students worldwide is measurably increasing. There is a concomitant emphasis on emphasizing globally-relevant health professions education.

Lessons learned from a  student-driven initiative to design and implement an Organ and Tissue Donation course across Canadian medical schools
AbstractThe competencies required of the well-trained physician are constantly evolving, and medical education must adapt accordingly. In response, a  growing number of influential medical education licensing and accreditation bodies have proposed frameworks that outline society’s expectations of physician competencies. In Canada, undergraduate and graduate curricula have undergone major changes to meet the specifications of the CanMEDS framew ork, and similar efforts are underway internationally.

"They increase in beauty and elegance": transforming cadavers and the epistemology of dissection in early nineteenth-century american medical education.
Abstract This paper investigates the origins of the practice of dissection in American medical education in order to both understand the function of dissection in medical education and challenge conventional wisdom about that function. In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, American medical schools increasingly made human dissection a crucial part of their curricula, privileging use of the human cadaver over any other anatomical model. In this paper, I break apart the claims that American physicians made at that time regarding the unique pedagogic usefulness of the cadaver, and I juxtapose those cl...

Sexual and gender minority health in medical curricula in new England: a pilot study of medical student comfort, competence and perception of curricula.
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of self-reported comfort is greater than that of self-reported competence serving SGM patients in a convenience sample of New England allopathic medical students. The majority of participants reported insufficient curricular preparation to achieve the competencies necessary to care for SGM patients. This multi-institution pilot study provides preliminary evidence that further curriculum development may be needed to enable medical students to achieve core competencies in SGM health, as defined by AAMC. Further mixed methods research is necessary to substantiate and expand upon the findings of thi...

The status of evolutionary medicine education in North American medical schools
This study assessed the change in coverage of evolution in North American medical schools since 2003 and identified opportunities for enriching medical education. Methods: In 2013, curriculum deans for all North American medical schools were invited to rate curricular coverage and perceived importance of 12 core principles, the extent of anticipated controversy from adding evolution, and the usefulness of 13 teaching resources. Differences between schools were assessed by Pearson’s chi-square test, Student’s t-test, and Spearman’s correlation. Open-ended questions sought insight into perceived barriers and benefits. ...

A new method for group decision making and its application in medical trainee selection
ConclusionsThe algorithm developed and described here may reduce arbitrariness in processes that require the collaborative creation of a preference list. This method may have wide applicability in medical education and training, and beyond. The present authors’ experience of using this algorithm during the National Resident Matching Program match showed improved perceptions of fairness, ease of use and efficiency.
