Virtual medical school may become a reality - Myrle Croasdale, AMNews

Online medical education is leaping into new territory via the International Virtual Medical School. Whether the project lands on solid ground or ends up mired in a bog has yet to be determined, but there may be as much value in the effort as there is in its success. "The suggestion is that if we don't do this, others will take over the role, and the future of medical education will no longer be [in the hands] of the medical schools. " said Ronald Harden, MD, director of the project and of Scotland's University of Dundee Centre for Medical Education. "If we don't take advantage of e-learning, we might loose our relevance."
