Medical Students Impress Judges at P&S Research Day

March 31, 2015 – “There’s amazing value in inserting into medical education opportunities for students to follow their noses,” Dr. Punt adds. “These students are really understanding what evidence is and what it isn’t, and I think when that’s integrated within medical school, you produce doctors more familiar with how they should evaluate evidence.”
