Inhaltsangabe:

When classrooms and clinical rotations shut down in March 2020, medical school faculty, staff, and students craved connection, comfort, and guidance. Out of that need, the Kern Institute created a weekly newsletter, the Transformational Times, to gather and amplify the voices of those rushing to the front lines and of those who supported them. The nascent community shared its reactions over the summer to racial injustice, in the fall to the COVID-19 surges and the return to school, and in the winter and spring to the continued societal discord and slow adjustment to the new normal.

This collection of essays, stories, and creative responses shares the voices of diverse members of the medical community and beyond through a year of disconnection and reconnection. With honesty and creativity, each contributor tries to discern what medical education-and our world-might look like on the other side.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: The Robert D. and Patricia E. Kern Institute for the Transformation of Medical Education was established in 2017 to transform medical education, influence healthcare and health outcomes, and encourage human flourishing through the acculturation of caring and character into learning and practice environments. This book, a project of the Kern Institute, was edited by Adina Kalet, MD, Bruce H. Campbell, MD, Kathlyn Fletcher, MD, Wendy Peltier, MD, Julia Schmitt, Erin Weileder, and Rachel Keane.
