Medical education at the crossroads. How to step into the future of medicine and medicine of the future?

Global changes in recent decades, caused by scientific and technological breakthroughs, which are characterized as a genomic revolution and the fourth industrial revolution, raise new pressing issues both for society as a whole and for public health. The latter can not exist and develop without a qualitative, and most importantly, modern medical education, in which significant changes are also taking place. In particular, the transition to standards by the World Federation of Medical Education (WFME) and the Association of Medical Education in Europe (AMEE) - «International Standards of Medical Education for Improving the Quality of Health» (Copenhagen, March 15-19, 2003).
