Graduating student pharmacists' perspectives on e-professionalism and social media: qualitative findings.
The researchers conducted a cross-sectional survey of 212 graduating student pharmacists to characterize their views of professionalism on popular social media sites. The themes identified in the analysis were separation of personal and professional lives, how accountability for actions should vary by severity, and the extent of representation of the students’ character on social media.

Restructuring medical education to meet current and future health care needs.
The authors ask whether the duration, sequencing, and requirements of medical education are appropriate to meet current and future challenges to medical care. They conclude that a much more agile system that prepares physicians to practice in a changing environment is needed. This will require change at both the macro regulatory level (e.g., accreditation bodies and specialty boards) as well as the micro level of individual programs taking initiative in innovation.
