Machine-translated · View original
A lab that raises the quality of medical education and supports the teachers who deliver it.

AboutAbout the lab
Medical education is always expected to renew itself.
Medical Education works to improve the quality of medical education and the educational environment at the Chiba University School of Medicine and its University Hospital.
It operates as the Medical Education Research Lab, a collaboration of Medical Education in the Graduate School of Medicine, the Center for General Medical Education and Training at the University Hospital, and the Clinical Skills Center.
Its role is to support the faculty members who carry out education. From the standpoint of education specialists, it aims to help them with how to teach, assess, and run education.
The lab believes that as long as medicine and healthcare advance every day, and patient needs and the society that supports healthcare keep changing, medical education must also keep renewing itself.
