"his resource is designed to help develop residents and fellows as teachers of medical students. The content addresses an aspect of teaching that many housestaff find challenging - that of providing effective formative feedback to medical students on clinical rotations."
"A large number of medical residents are unable to correctly interpret crucial statistical concepts that are commonly found in the medical literature. They are also especially prone to the gambler's fallacy bias, which may undermine clinical judgment and medical decision making. Formalized systematic teaching of biostatistics during residency will be required to de-bias residents and ensure that they are proficient in understanding and communicating statistical information."
The Humanities Program endeavours to foster the humanities in the medical school and hopes it to be fully incorporated within the fabric of the medical school curriculum, clinical teaching and the lives of the students and faculty.
