The Medical Literacy Initiative is a physician-led mission to increase the accessibility of medical knowledge and research. All of our efforts are rooted in a desire to educate the public about basic health topics. Research has shown that medical literacy is associated with improved health outcomes. We know that having medical knowledge allows people to lead healthier lifestyles and is fundamental in making informed medical decisions.
In order to bring medical education to the public, we operate a medical library. Our writers are passionate leaders in medicine who write about various medical topics in simple, digestible terms to inspire and inform a nonspecialist audience.
We love to collaborate with individuals who are passionate about medical literacy. If you have feedback or if you would like to pioneer a project with us – please contact us.
