Debunking Medical Myths (2023, 2022)

As a member of a learning community, medical students identified a Medical Myth focusing on topics such as vaccination, diet, preventative medicine, or infectious disease. The learning communities searched the literature to find peer-reviewed articles that speak to the myth. They further evaluated the literature to select the strongest evidence against the myth. Using this information, they created a plain-language infographic that debunks the myth for a patient/healthcare consumer audience. This assignment’s goal was to develop an understanding of communicating with patients as part of a physician’s Professional Identity Formation.
