RT Journal A1 Golub RM T1 Medical education theme issue 2013: Call for papers JF JAMA JO JAMA YR 2013 FD February 27 VO 309 IS 8 SP 829 OP 829 DO 10.1001/jama.2013.470 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.2013.470 AB Ignorance about how best to deliver medical education may not only cost dollars in lost efficiency in training, but may produce physicians who are not able to provide optimal medical care for their patients. The best hope for reducing such ignorance is high-quality research in medical education. To be done well, such research also costs money; the strongest research in medical education has had substantial funding.3- 4 But the large gaps in knowledge about medical education (related in part to limited research training, resources, and funding) are certainly costing money too.
