Medical Education Online is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that aims "to disseminate information on the education and training of physicians and other health care professionals." Edited by a team of educators and administrators from medical schools, labs, and training clinics around the country, Medical Education Online publishes articles relating to best practices in medical school pedagogy and medical school admissions. The current issue of the journal explores how learning communities within medical school influence social and educational relationships between medical students, analyzes whether or not MCAT (Medical College Admission Test) scores influence USMLE (United States Licensing Examination) scores, and considers possible ways to alleviate "neurophobia" - the anxiety around learning neurology - among medical students.
