“The biggest risk is self-study without actual demonstration of performance.”

Dr. Peter Selby, CAMH Chief of Medicine in Psychiatry, discusses the current state of technology in medical education with Dr. Gratzer.

Together they cover topics such as:

how technology has helped bridge the access gap in medical education;the benefit of smartphones to just-in-time learning;the ability of VR and simulation to help people learn in more diverse – and impactful – ways;and how an online community of practice helped to fill the void on smoking cessation education for Syrian refugees.
