The Teaching MDM Interest Group promotes collaboration in the development of educational materials, curricular resources, and instructional methods for teaching medical decision making to health care professionals, patients, and policy makers. The continued existence and growth of the field of medical decision making depends on its ability to train new MDM researchers and to propagate the concepts of MDM to health care professionals, patients, and policy makers. Because MDM is highly multidisciplinary in theory and practice, those who teach MDM need access to a broad range of resources and a diverse network of fellow educators.
