Recent papers by Lisk and Sibbald have again raised the role of basic sciences in medical training – a debate stretching back to the original Flexner Report [1, 2]. For medical students like myself, Flexner’s vision for scientific rigor in medical education continues to resonate deeply. Many of us are trained in basic sciences prior to entering medicine. We arrive keen to learn basic science is...
