ABSTRACT
Medical education is an important part of health care. Many medical educators have thought deeply about it since the outbreak of COVID-19. Based on my own experience and thinking during the pandemic, I now believe more strongly in the importance of the cultures of medicine and science, which reflect the views of life amongst medical and scientific professionals. The two cultures derive from the lives of medical workers and scientists and manifest in their attitudes towards clinical practice, scientific research and teaching. They also embody the spirit, essence and philosophy of the medical and scientific professions ? the common belief in seeking the truth and the common will to pursue kindness. Education today is not simply a matter of passing on knowledge. More importantly, the next generation shall inherit the scientific culture of seeking the truth, pursuing kindness and exploring beauty and humanity. This is crucial to medical education and clinical practice.
