This included the viable pathways to pursue a medical education and practise in the U.S., skills and requirements for international medical students and the global shortage of medical professionals.
The representatives of the universities explained that the demand for quality medical education and training remains high despite the pandemic and discussed in detail the impact of the pandemic on medical students which restricted opportunities for hands-on training.
