The medical faculty and the challenge of new knowledge
1Medical Faculty, University of Milano.
Abstract:
A reflection is proposed for the medical school to pay greater attention to the emerging knowledge in the biomedical and health care settings and their introduction in the curriculum. The risk that the intrinsic dynamism of the spiral of education could be overlooked by the predominance of a static view of teaching/learning subjects, is to be feared. In fact, civil society and the development of knowledge, continuously advance new biomedical or health care themes not belonging to the conventional list of university teaching.
