摘要

In this issue, Tarkowski and Kornafel [1] provide an overview of a medical student scientific society that aims to increase the exposure of medical students to oncology and palliative care. This work highlights the positive steps that can be taken in cancer education where formal teaching in cancer and palliative care is limited or absent in a curriculum.Cancer is a major global issue, and many countries are facing a shortage of specialist physicians to care for cancer patients. Students develop attitudes to certain areas of medicine early on in their education, which may prevent them from considering future careers in those areas. Cancer is one such area that is often negatively impacted upon and early exposure to cancer, and in particular, cancer patients can dispel many common myths and misconceptions. As the authors point out, a number of medical students still consider oncology to be depressing and limited to end of life care. The long-term implications of workforce shortages in cancer and palliative care should not be underestimated, given the projected increase in the number of new cancer cases globally and the increased survival of cancer patients in many countries.
