All members of the learning and teaching environment share responsibility for creating a positive and supportive learning environment. Our goal is to create a culture that enhances patient care, scholarship and research and that is committed to the health care needs of society. 

Optimal medical and scientific practice require good judgment, respect for the values of the profession of medicine, and a commitment to the wellbeing of patients and those close to them.
