Journal Club

One major scholarly endeavor of the COMSEP membership is participation in a medical education journal club. Twice annually, articles from the literature relevant to medical student (and sometimes resident) education are sought, analyzed, critiqued and discussed. The COMSEP Journal Club is published in each issue of The Pediatric Educator. Our Journal Club editors may continue to change, but the quality of the reviews is constant.

If you are looking specifically for a search term such as "standardized patient" remember that you can use the search function on the webpage. The titles of the articles are below, organized by issue of The Pediatric Educator. By clicking on the title, it will take you to the body of the review and commentary by the Editors.
