Amy graduated from Pomona College in 2010, and is currently a member of the Keck SOM of USC Class of 2016. She is planning to go into emergency medicine and is particularly interested in how we preserve our empathy as physicians, both during our training and out in practice, and how we can combat physician burnout. When she's not studying she spends her time rock climbing, making music, and walking her dog.
Evidence-based medicine is a topic about which we as medical students hear lectures, have workshops and complete written assignments. What is it really? Is it just keeping up with the most recent literature in the field of medicine and practicing medicine based on evidence?
