Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This paper reviews the factors which have driven changes in undergraduate education in psychiatry since the 1993 publication of "Tomorrow's Doctors",' after which it describes current undergraduate curricula in the four Scottish medical schools teaching clinical psychiatry. Reasons underlying the differences between curricula are discussed. The authors suggest that research in medical education, alongside communication and debate between medical schools and across specialties, would lead to more uniform and evidence-based curricula.
