Abstract
Journal club is crucial in medical professions education, especially residency training. Critical
evaluation allows learners to read, understand, and apply the evidence to bridge the gap between
research and practice. Academic members of the Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TU MS)
Orthopedic Department have held about 2,300 weekly sessions for around 50 years, even in times of
crises, to review the latest publications in orthopedics and sometimes linked their journal clubs to
hospitalized cases. Considering the educational and research-related nature of journal clubs,
educational planning is necessary for running effective sessions for academicians, residents, and the
Continuing Medical Education (CME) program participants.
