ABSTRACT Background Multimorbidity and patient complexity are increasing, yet undergraduate medical education curricula remain dominated by single disease frameworks, where students often shielded from exposure to this complexity. Why shielding continues occur is understandable; however, may leave graduates feeling underprepared for real‐world practice. This study aimed explore students' experiences of encountering, managing dealing with provide informed recommendations integrating into...

There have been frequent calls for further exploration of gender‐based discriminations education, owing to its lasting impact on student's professional development career trajectories. This paper presents ethnographic experiences female students doctors clinical learning environment (CLE), aiming disrupt...
Background Time in general practice offers medical students opportunities to learn a breadth of clinical knowledge and skills relevant their future practice. Undergraduate experiences shape career decisions current recommendations are that 25% undergraduate curriculum time should be focused on However, previous work demonstrated GP teaching had plateaued or reduced UK schools. Therefore, an up-to-date description is timely. Aim To describe the picture teaching, including amount resources...
Medical schools are required to train the workforce needed care for population they serve. In UK, we expected produce more graduates choosing be general practitioners and equip all with ability an ageing increasingly complex needs. These doctors need effective members of multi-professional teams, possessing generalist skills including understanding uncertainty risk. Curricula where a significant proportion clinical learning is based in practice best placed address this pedagogic need. The...
