Uncertainty is ever-present within the medical profession. To effectively manage uncertainty, future doctors must develop key competencies including resilience, creativity and adaptability along with the capacity for collaboration and embracing multiculturalism. The authors believe that attending an overseas clinical research placement as a junior medical student can benefit medical education by offering an early opportunity to develop these qualities. These views are supported by reflections on a clinical research module and placement in Guangzhou, China completed by the authors during the second year of medical school and aims to highlight key learning opportunities.
不确定性在医疗行业中始终存在。为了有效应对不确定性,未来的医生必须培养关键能力,包括适应力、创造力和适应能力,以及协作能力和接受多元文化的能力。作者认为,作为低年级医学生参加海外临床研究实习可以为医学教育带来益处,因为这提供了一个早期培养这些素质的机会。作者在医学院第二年完成的关于在中国广州的临床研究模块和实习的思考支持了这些观点,旨在突出关键的学习机会。
