The National Medical Commission (NMC) of India has issued new guideline for post graduate medical courses in India on 15th January 2024. These Guidelines may be called the "Minimum Standard of Requirements for Postgraduate Courses-2023 (PGMSR-2023)". These guidelines will come into force with immediate effect. Unfortunately, Family Medicine specialty has been entirely excluded from this document, despite clear mandate in the National Medical Commission Act 2019. Previously, the Undergraduate Medical Education Board of NMC did not include the Family Medicine as a mandatory department for training at MBBC Course...

The Pan American Health Organization has been committed to training physicians in leadership competencies since 2008. However, four reviews on teaching leadership using competency-based education in undergraduate medical education (UME) identified only two of 35 MS: Canada and the USA. Previous reviews did not use a systemic approach or qualitative methodology to explore factors influencing leadership education. Therefore, this review aims to identify facilitating and inhibiting factors in teaching leadership in UME using a scoping review and thematic analysis...

BACKGROUND: Distributed Medical Education (DME), a decentralized model focused on smaller cities and communities, has been implemented worldwide to bridge the gap in psychiatric education. Faculty engagement in teaching activities such as clinical teaching, supervision, and examinations is a crucial aspect of DME sites. Implementing or expanding DME sites requires careful consideration to identify enablers that contribute to success and barriers that need to be addressed. This study aims to examine enablers, barriers, and factors influencing psychiatrists' willingness to start or continue participating in teaching activities within Dalhousie University's Faculty of Medicine DME sites in two provinces in Atlantic Canada...

OBJECTIVE: To improve patient outcomes and promote health equity, medical students must be taught not only biomedicine, but also the social sciences to understand the larger contexts in which patients live and health care operates. Yet, most undergraduate medical education does not explicitly cover these topics in a required, longitudinal curriculum. METHODS: In January 2015 at Harvard Medical School, we created a two-part sequence (pre- and post-clerkship) of required, 4-week multidisciplinary courses-"Essentials of the Profession I and II"-to fill this gap...

BACKGROUND: In the Netherlands, 2 to 10% of the residents terminate training prematurely. Infrequently, termination of training is by dismissal. Incidentally, residents may disagree, dispute and challenge these decisions from the programme directors. Resident dismissal is always a difficult decision, most commonly made after, repeated assessments, and triangulation of the resulting assessment data and one or more remediation attempts. Nevertheless, the underlying reasons for dismissal and the policies for remediation and dismissal may differ between training programmes...

A poor-quality dietary pattern is a leading risk factor for chronic disease and death in the United States, and the costs of medical care continue to unsustainably rise. Despite this reality, nutrition training for physicians fails to adequately prepare for them to address the complex factors that influence diet-related disease. Expanding nutrition education for physicians-in-training is imperative to equip them for the growing demand of food is medicine services and is also supported by recent policy efforts in the United States as well as the governing bodies of graduate and undergraduate medical education...

In this literature overview, we share with the reader challenges faced by LGBTQ + individuals pursuing medical education, from undergraduate to postgraduate training. The LGBTQ + acronym has evolved to encompass the diverse spectrum of sexual orientation and gender identities. Recently, the term "Sexual and Gender Minority" (SGM) has emerged as an umbrella term to provide consistency in research advancing SGM health. The unique obstacles LGBTQ + trainees encounter are highlighted throughout this article, including external factors influencing career decisions, a lack of LGBTQ + healthcare curricula, discriminatory social interactions, limited mentorship opportunities, and a higher mental health burden...

India has been historically challenged by an insufficient and heterogeneously clustered distribution of healthcare infrastructure. While resource-limited healthcare settings, such as major parts of India, require multidisciplinary approaches for improvement, one key approach is the recruitment and training of a healthcare workforce representative of its population. This requires overcoming barriers to equity and representation in Indian medical education that are multi-faceted, historical, and rooted in inequality...

China has become an attractive destination for international medical students, particularly those from developing countries in Asia and Africa. These students are known to face difficulties in adapting to Chinese medical universities and they tend to score poorly on subsequent examinations to enter the medical profession in their home or in a third country. To date, limited research concerning the factors that affect the academic performance of this group of students in China has been conducted. In particular, there have been very few comparisons between high and low achievers to identify the factors that high- and low-achieving international medical students in all years of study perceive as affecting their academic performance...
