Today's medical schools employ evidence-based approaches to learning and curriculum development. Educators and researchers aim to enhance the delivery of medical training with accreditation standards.
Medical education research aims to improve the knowledge, skills, and professionalism of medical students by understanding and evaluating the medical education environment and practices. This includes the policies and practices of medical school preparation, admissions, curriculum development and content delivery in both undergraduate and graduate medical education programs.
PCOM Georgia faculty member Shafik Habal, MD, hopes his research on interprofessional training, service-learning and more will help medical students become more prepared residents and physicians.
PCOM aims to develop innovative approaches to promoting health through basic, translational, clinical, behavioral, education and community research projects.
