"Half of what you’ll learn in medical school will be shown to be either dead wrong or out of date within five years of your graduation; the trouble is that nobody can tell you which half – so the most important thing to learn is how to learn on your own."
David Sackett, M.D.
Introduction to Searching & Using this Guide
The resources listed on this guide are a starting point for discovering the best resources to answer a variety of questions. I have a few that help with the quick answer as well as ones that provide more details. Your answer may be found in more than one resource so you can simply choose your favorite one, or you may have to try a number of resources in order to find the best information. We encourage you to use a variety of resources and seek different opinions by choosing different resources. As you move through your medical career, developing great habits for life-long learning is very important. Use these cases to get to know and develop your favorite resources to support that activity.
