Walking Tour: MEDICAL STUDENTS
For medical students studying intellectual [learning]
disability, the volume of potential reading material can seem
immense. To make things easier, we have highlighted a short list
of articles that provide medical students with a good 'taster'
of this field, including those important topic areas that are
likely to be asked about in undergraduate exams. They have been
selected with the input of our editorial board, which includes
doctors involved in teaching and examining students, and a medical
student representative. Intellectual disability is a global field,
involving medical, psychological and social issues, all of which
are covered in our selected articles.
As a guide, we have sub-divided the articles depending
on where you are in your medical training. However, please consider
browsing other areas too!
