UPCM InSPIRE Magazine

[UPCM InSPIRE Magazine]

"Telehealth, artificial intelligence, generational culture shifts, and political and economic determinants affect health, care delivery, and outcomes. Medical education must remain responsive, appropriate, and anticipatory of these changes. Medical schools should keep pace and be at the forefront of groundbreaking technology and well attuned to the sociopolitical shifts."
— Dr. Angela Sison-Aguilar
Faculty Editor-in-Chief of INSPIRE
