Abstract
The incorporation of PM&R into the medical student curriculum thus provides benefits at multiple levels: to patients, to medical students, and to practitioners already in the field. The knowledge about PM&R gained by the medical student is spread to disciplines outside of PM&R through the learning of principles and specific factual data that can be applicable for practitioners caring for a variety of patients. It is the position of this organization that each academic department work to integrate education in PM&R into the medical school curriculum.Keywords
