The medical world is often cited as a major example of why Open Access is so important.  If we can't read papers, we can't deliver evidence-based, up-to-date care. And yet, once we enter the working world, it's a challenge to achieve awareness of Open Access amongst junior doctors, let alone activism and advocacy.  Join this Open Con Community Call for Junior Doctors (Medical Students also welcome!) to talk about Open Access in the medical world, the hurdles, and what we can do to make a community to make Open Access part of our message and practice.
