Exploring Social Media Use Among Medical Students Applying for Residency Training: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Exploring Social Media Use Among Medical Students Applying for Residency Training: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Since the 2020‐2021 residency application cycle, the Association of American Medical Colleges and Liaison Committee on Medical Education have recommended that programs conduct virtual interviews exclusively for residency applicants [1,2].

Impact of Ophthalmic Knowledge Assessment Program Scores and Surgical Volume on Subspecialty Fellowship Application in Ophthalmology Residency: Retrospective Cohort Study

Impact of Ophthalmic Knowledge Assessment Program Scores and Surgical Volume on Subspecialty Fellowship Application in Ophthalmology Residency: Retrospective Cohort Study

Ophthalmology residency graduates in Canada have similar statistics, with 64% pursuing subspecialty training [4]. In the United States, vitreoretinal (36%), cornea (25%), glaucoma (13%), oculoplastic (10%), and pediatric (10%) fellowships are the most common [2]. Fewer ophthalmologists pursued fellowship training in anterior segment (2%), neuro-ophthalmology (0.7%), and uveitis (0.7%) [2]. These percentages are similar to the 2017 through 2022 San Francisco Match Data [5].

Learning Styles of Medical Students, Surgical Residents, Medical Staff, and General Surgery Teachers When Learning Surgery: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Learning Styles of Medical Students, Surgical Residents, Medical Staff, and General Surgery Teachers When Learning Surgery: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Educating surgeons is an ancient tradition that has existed since the development of surgery [13], and for centuries, surgical residency curricula have been guided primarily by tradition. The apprenticeship model has been one of the essential components of surgical training. It generally involves three steps: assisting at operations, performing operations with expert assistance, and operating without assistance.

Creation of an Automated and Comprehensive Resident Progress System for Residents and to Save Hours of Faculty Time: Mixed Methods Study

Creation of an Automated and Comprehensive Resident Progress System for Residents and to Save Hours of Faculty Time: Mixed Methods Study

Building upon both the work for dashboard management and work around gathering high-quality faculty feedback by matching milestones with evaluation questions [6], we have developed a novel and fully automated system for residency progress management. This system was designed to help residents and residency leadership have a clear view of the educational progress as well as milestones of the residents.

Training Family Medicine Residents in Dermoscopy Using an e-Learning Course: Pilot Interventional Study

Training Family Medicine Residents in Dermoscopy Using an e-Learning Course: Pilot Interventional Study

A survey of FM residency program directors in the United States revealed that only 6.8% of residents had 4 or more hours of dermoscopy training and asked for research to better understand how to facilitate dermoscopy training in family medicine residencies [15]. The Department of Faculty of Medicine at University of Montpellier-Nîmes designed an optional e-learning module to train second- and third-year family medicine residents in dermoscopy in 2020.

Evaluating Participation in Gender-Affirming Care: Cross-Sectional Analysis of Dermatology Program Websites in the United States

Evaluating Participation in Gender-Affirming Care: Cross-Sectional Analysis of Dermatology Program Websites in the United States

To ensure culturally competent care, dermatology residency programs should provide/promote didactic and experiential training tailored to the health needs of TGD patients [2]. Additionally, prospective residents may benefit from being able to ascertain whether certain programs are involved in GAC, including education and research. We aimed to assess the current landscape of GAC participation among dermatology programs and propose strategies to enhance the visibility of such participation.

Radiology Residents’ Perceptions of Artificial Intelligence: Nationwide Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Radiology Residents’ Perceptions of Artificial Intelligence: Nationwide Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Contextual factors are considered to play an important role, as learning performance during standardized residency training (SRT) is highly dependent on one’s training status [34,35]. In addition, theories on technology acceptance (eg, the Technology Acceptance Model) suggest that attitudes such as perceived usefulness and risk affect the willingness to adopt AI technology [36-38].

Teaching Palliative Care to Emergency Medicine Residents Using Gamified Deliberate Practice-Based Simulation: Palliative Gaming Simulation Study

Teaching Palliative Care to Emergency Medicine Residents Using Gamified Deliberate Practice-Based Simulation: Palliative Gaming Simulation Study

Emergency physicians receive minimal palliative and end-of-life education training during residency, and palliative and end-of-life care training within emergency medicine (EM) has been identified as an area of need [4-6]. A survey of Canadian emergency medicine programs found that 38.5% have palliative and end-of-life care curricula, mostly in the form of lectures. Barriers to implementing palliative care curricula were lack of time (84.6%) and curriculum development concerns (80.8%) [4].

Evaluating the Applicability of Existing Lexicon-Based Sentiment Analysis Techniques on Family Medicine Resident Feedback Field Notes: Retrospective Cohort Study

Evaluating the Applicability of Existing Lexicon-Based Sentiment Analysis Techniques on Family Medicine Resident Feedback Field Notes: Retrospective Cohort Study

The categories that preceptors fill out in the field note template used at the University of Toronto’s Department of Family and Community Medicine are as follows: assessee, date of encounter, state of residency, assessment tool (Can MEDs roles), rotation service, site, area(s) of observation, level of performance or competency (5 levels), strengths, and actions (areas of improvement). We applied lexicon-based sentiment analysis using 3 well-established sentiment dictionaries: BING, AFINN, and NRC.

Training Physicians in the Digital Health Era: How to Leverage the Residency Elective

Training Physicians in the Digital Health Era: How to Leverage the Residency Elective

In this viewpoint, we argue that immersive elective internship experiences with a digital health company should be considered by resident physicians eager for unique, hands-on learning opportunities in care delivery transformation outside of usual residency training.
