Even after you’ve left medical school, you’ll have to stay current. There’s a lot more to it than just picking up CME credits; though staying up to date on clinical medicine and pharmacology is critical, there are technologies and trends among patients and society that you’ll have to keep up with.

He also has some advice on how you, as a medical student, can help more experienced physicians stay up to date on these trends too.
