Traditional Medical Teaching Methods May be a near Future Solution

I am disheartened by the direction of medical education and its implementation at the grass roots level. Like so many other institutions, my own University teaching Hospital has recently discarded its cadaveric facility in favor of virtual teaching methodologies. This has been a visible trend for several years across universities and hospitals in North America and Europe. Although there is a significant cost saving in education with this departure from traditional methods, a loss of core knowledge from future medically related students is an unspoken price for all future generations to pay.
