Veterinary Medical Education

• The KeyLIME podcast: A weekly journal club style podcast produced by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada; bringing you the main points of one peer-reviewed medical education article each week, in under half an hour. They focus on articles that are important, innovative, or will impact educational practice. Some favorites to get started:
  • Gender bias in student evaluation of clinical teachers (2018)
  • Can we see into the brain of a trainee by looking at their notes? (2022)
