ep 001 When Medical Education Changed When Medical Education Changed

This podcast is an audio version of the book written in 1980 by Greer Williams called The Western Reserve Experiment in Medical Education - and Its Outcome.  Episode one is an introduction to the podcast, a personal overview of what motivated it's development, and a quick overview of the main players in this watershed medical curriculum change.  It is an extraordinary moment not only in medical education, but in the art and science of medicine.  Its impact was national.  Even the Ivy's adopted this change, which is important because their medical educational philosophy was why the physicians came to Cleveland from Harvard to effect this change.
