Qualitative data, cross‐language research and AI translation
Lingard & Klasen reflect on the complex nature of qualitative data and its implications for both cross‐language translation efforts and the potential of AI as a translation tool
From understanding to embracing
Emotions refer to conscious and subjectively experienced mental reactions that are often associated with physiological and behavioral changes. In the context of medical education research, emotions have a pervasive influence on how various types of information are perceived and processed, and therefore, can influence how research is designed, conducted, and implemented. While there is considerable research on how emotions affect learning, there i…

Breaking the Silence
Trainees' perceptions of being allowed to fail in clinical training
A phenomenological exploration of the impact of Covid‐19 on the medical education community
‘It depends’
PURPOSE: Clinical supervisors acknowledge that they sometimes allow trainees to fail for educational purposes. What remains unknown is how supervisors decide whether to allow failure in a specific instance. Given the high stakes nature of these decisions, such knowledge is necessary to inform conversations about this educationally powerful and clinically delicate phenomenon. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 19 supervisors participated in semi-structured in…
Medical students’ perceptions of learning and working on the Covid-19 frontlines
The COVID-19 pandemic caused complex and enduring challenges for healthcare providers and medical educators. The rapid changes to the medical education landscape forced universities across the world to pause traditional medical training. In Basel, Switzerland, however, medical students had the opportunity to work on the COVID-19 frontlines. Our purpose was to understand how they perceived both learning and professional identity development in thi…
Medical student engagement during Covid‐19
As a consequence of the ever-changing circumstances that COVID-19 caused during the early stages of the pandemic, a large number of frontline health care workers were urgently needed in specific clinical environments, such as hospitals and Triage and Test Centers (TTCs). Some health care systems experienced short-term to mid-term staff re-structuring, re-deployment of physicians and trainees, the return of retired health care workers to frontline…
It Hurts Whether You Fail or Not
As a surgeon, I don’t often sit in my office, but on this afternoon I did. After a knock on the door, one of my first-year surgical residents entered and asked if we might have a private conversation. He seemed ill-at-ease and miserable as he sat down. He was reluctant to talk at first, but he finally described how he had recently transferred a patient to the internal medicine unit. Two days later, he learned the patient had passed away. Immediat…
SWAB team instead of SWAT team
Mentoring in general surgery in Switzerland
Mentor-mentee relationships are important for the career advancement of male surgeons. The reason for the lack of an impact on the careers of female surgeons is difficult to ascertain. However, mentoring also provides lifelong learning and personal development. Thus, specific attention should be paid to the development of more structured mentoring programs for both sexes
