It has been 30 years since the Web was introduced to the world and in that time we have seen seismic changes in the way we communicate, consume, and conceptualize knowledge, services, and identities.

Despite this, medical education is still primarily about human minds and human bodies. What has actually changed in training tomorrow's doctors?

​This address will challenge our understanding of the nature of medical education in a digital age.

Dr. Rachel Ellaway is a Professor in the Department of Community Health Sciences, and Director of the Office of Health and Medical Education Scholarship for the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary. She was the Assistant Dean for Curriculum and Planning at the Northern Ontario school of Medicine before moving to Calgary in 2015.

Dr. Ellaway is also the editor in chief of the journal Advances in Health Sciences Education (AHSE), chair of the national medical education centre director's group, and she was the creator and Maîtresse de Cérémonies of the AMEE Fringe for many years.
​

As an internationally  acclaimed scholar her work has encompassed many aspects and debates in contemporary medical education including educational technologies, contexts, philosophy of educational science, and philosophies of equity and service. Her contributions have been recognised in many awards including the CAME Ian Hart Award fir Distinguished Contribution to Medical Education, the RCPSC Duncan Graham Award for Outstanding Contribution to Medical Education, the AFMC President's Award for Exemplary National Leadership on Academic Medicine, and the Meridith Marks Mentorship Award.
