As the Internet becomes more accessible to users around the world, MedRounds will be there to deliver high quality academic materials to everyone's home.

Some have asked us why the name "MedRounds"? Students at The Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine are taught that the first hospital rooms were built in a circular arrangement within the famous Hopkins Dome. Johns Hopkins was the first medical school to require a four year college degree before matriculation and implemented the first post-graduate residency training program for physicians. When the medical students and residents followed their attending physicians during teaching rounds, they walked from bed to bed, in a circular fashion. Hence, the term "medical rounds" and "teaching rounds" have been used synonymously with medical education for over 100 years.

It is the goal at MedRounds Publications to provide reliable, high-quality teaching materials to students, patients, and physicians at low or no cost.
