A study published in the Medical Journal of Australia this month looks at how doctors' rural background and years of rural clinical school training affect their decisions to take up subsequent rural clinical practice. Determinants of rural practice: positive interaction between rural background and rural undergraduate training reports on a cohort study of medical graduates from the University of Queensland between 2002 and 2011. The results showed a significant correlation between rural background and rural clinical school exposure with current rural practice. The authors believe this has strengthened the argument for enhancing the efficacy of Australia's rural clinical
school programs.
