Medical Education Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A medical education lab that studies how medical students and healthcare professionals learn and grow.
AboutAbout the lab
Researching how healthcare professionals learn.
The Medical Education Lab investigates how healthcare professionals, including medical students and their instructors, deepen their learning and by what methods.
Learning is shaped not only by what is inside the learner but also by their relationships with others and the environment they learn in, so everyday life at the university and in clinical settings is itself the subject of research.
The lab puts particular emphasis on learner-centered learning, learning within patient-centered care, and diversity and inclusion.
