"I felt like a little kind of jolt of energy in my chest": embodiment in learning in continuing professional development for general practitioners.

Learning in medical education encompasses a broad spectrum of learning theories, and an embodiment perspective has recently begun to emerge in continuing professional development (CPD) for health professionals. However, empirical research into the experience of embodiment in learning in CPD is sparse, particularly in the practice of general medicine. In this study, we aimed to explore general practitioners' (GPs') learning experiences during CPD from an embodiment perspective, studying the appearance of elements of embodiment-the body, actions, emotions, cognition, and interactions with the surroundings and others-to build an explanatory structure of embodiment in learning.

Surrendering to the Process: Innovation in Developing CPD for General Practice.

In CME/CPD, a significant part of research is about effectiveness. Attention to the development process can be vital to understand how it impacts progress and results. This study aims to explore an innovative process of applying a combined approach using design-based research, collaborative innovation, and program theory to develop CPD about type 2 diabetes for GPs and clinic nurses with a group of interprofessional stakeholders.
