In developing countries, there is very little current literature. The Supercourse serves to deliver new scientific information to developing countries and will likely be the main source of scientific information. Lecture sharing will help the experienced teachers and junior instructors, teachers from developing and developed countries, as well as medical and public health students.
When considering international research one is confronted in both developed and developing countries that are quite different than doing work within ones own country. Often Investigators are interested in doing International research, but do not realize that the rules and medical systems are different. Misperceptions can taint research, and in fact destroy research. It makes little sense as the system we have now where all new international research starts anew, without using learning from the many mistakes that we all have made. International research needs to “stand on the shoulders of those who went before”, as through connection and dialogue we can help others to not make the same mistakes as we. We need to move from International research to Global research. Global research is about communication. Medical students are important conduits for global health research sharing.
