We’re really excited to be collaborating with Becky from Becky’s notes, a UK based resource, to produce an infographic for our visual learners out there. Becky’s notes brings together all the key topics medical students need to know in a readily available place, reviewed by specialists in the field. These visually striking notes are a refreshing change from all the boring textbooks.
