The medical profession is highly specialized, demanding continuous learning, while also undergoing rapid development in the rise of data-driven healthcare. Based on clinical scenarios, this study explores how resident physicians view their roles and practices in relation to informed patients and patient-centric digital technologies. The paper illustrates how the new role of patients alters physicians' work and use of data to learn and update their professional practice. It suggests new possibilities for developing collegial competence and using patient experiences more systematically. Drawing on the notion of flipped healthcare, we argue that there is a need for new professional competencies in everyday data work, along with a change in attitudes, newly defined roles, and better ways to identify and develop reliable online sources. Finally, the role of patients, not only as consumers but also producers of healthcare, is a rather formidable and complex cultural change to be addressed.

Background: The "Fundamentals of Nursing" course is crucial for equipping novice undergraduate nursing students with essential skills for their professional practice. However, a gap exists between nursing education and clinical readiness-a challenge exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and issues like absenteeism in clinical sessions. The flipped classroom has been proposed as an innovative strategy to bridge this gap, offering students opportunities for self-paced learning before class and enabling more active, hands-on practice during lab sessions.

To build competencies, an IP leadership learning protocol (ILLP) was developed using an evidence-informed conflict resolution self-study and patient-care video conference (PCVC) for family NP students, which was later adapted for psychiatric mental health (PMH) NP students and measured effectiveness.
Method: Flipped-classroom initial self-study of IP leadership strategies and relevant clinical considerations culminated in applying this learning within the PCVC by role-playing deliberately contrived adversarial IP roles with a faculty facilitator intermittently designating students to act as the IP leader.

Introduction: Medical students may arrive at medical school with some research background but not necessarily evidence-based medicine (EBM) skills. First-year preclinical medical students require foundational skills for EBM (formulating background and foreground questions, navigating information sources, and conducting database searches) before critically appraising evidence and applying it to clinical scenarios.
Methods: We developed a flipped classroom EBM workshop for preclinical students combining prework modules and a 60-minute in-person session.

Background: Statistical significance currently defines superiority in phase III oncology trials. However, this practice is increasingly questioned. Here, we estimated the fragility of phase III oncology trials.

Background: Learning health systems (LHS) have the potential to use health data in real time through rapid and continuous cycles of data interrogation, implementing insights to practice, feedback, and practice change. However, there is a lack of an appropriately skilled interprofessional informatics workforce that can leverage knowledge to design innovative solutions. Therefore, there is a need to develop tailored professional development training in digital health, to foster skilled interprofessional learning communities in the health care workforce in Australia.
