Synthesis Post

The medical field is a forever evolving field and is expanding rapidly. It is arguably one of the best fields for young people to enter. Working in the medical field allows you to help people directly and offers opportunities to learn something new everyday. Currently, there is a great need for physicians and often medical students receive job offers the day after graduation. Whether it is the rewarding experience of bettering a patients life, the large paychecks, or job security, many young people should be drawn to this field. As future healthcare professionals, we are fascinated by how challenges in modern medicine are being surmounted and influence the healthcare of tomorrow. Our blog inspires those that come after us to pursue a career in medicine by exploring the exciting innovative opportunities and personal rewards within medical field.

Our blog team has chosen to go into the medical field for reasons, but we recognize that not enough students chose this field. The demand for doctors or other healthcare professionals exceeds the amount of people entering the field. As aspiring physicians, we have chosen to get involved within medical field early because it is important to gain experience to become a competitive candidate for medical school. As undergraduate students, one way to get involved is through research opportunities. Our blog discusses new research and progress made in medicine, such ad marijuana on the brain and new surgery techniques.

The medical field may be intimidating or boring to some, but there are many unique and exciting aspects of the field. Our blog discusses some of the most interesting aspects of medicine.  From the controversial topic of physician assisted suicide, to becoming more mentally tough from a psychological standpoint, to the effects of kissing another person. The blog provides resources on how to pursue a premedical degree in the "So, You're Thinking About Being a Premed?" post, along with how to obtain accurate information about medicine in the "Delivery vs Style" post. Although the process of entering the medical field is strenuous, it is made obvious through our blog that it is worth it.

The advancements and milestones that our blog discusses have substantially influenced the medical field. Our blog mentions the interesting aspects of medicine that are occurring, as well as advancements that have made a global impact. An example of this can be found in the "Stem Cells- Medical Advancement" post. This post discusses the significance of stem cell research. Stem cells could revolutionize the way we treat many debilitating diseases, but is extremely controversial. Another interesting, yet globally significant topic was mentioned in "The Bionic Arm" post. This post discussed robotic prosthetic arm that is able to receive signals from the brain, allowing it to function almost as a natural limb would. These posts, along with the rest of our blog examines the obstacles that are being surmounted by researchers and how the medical community is community is influenced by these achievements.

Our goal is to inspire our readers with the incredible achievements the medical field is currently making. We also hope to influence our readers to research to research these topics more in depth, just as we have. Through this blogging experience, we have become aware of the importance of the revolutionary contributions of research in medicine. We also learned how to research efficiently and effectively summarize complicated research. Researching advancements in healthcare has illustrated where the medical field is headed towards when we finally become doctors and has allowed us to take a more proactive role in our premedical education.
