Commentary: Integrating EBM into the Undergraduate Medical Curriculum

I attended the recent international students’ congress of research integrity and evidence-based practice, held on kish island, december 7-9, 2015. at the congress, i gave a keynote presentation and led faculty and student workshops on the gate approach to teaching evidence based medicine. i initially developed gate (graphic appraisal tool for epidemiological studies) to teach undergraduate medical students how to critical appraise clinical studies, but i now use it with a much wider range of undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as many health professional groups.
