Abstract

In view of the COVID-19 pandemic and the interruption of academic activities in medicine courses, the Medical Education Development Center of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of São Paulo developed a questionnaire to investigate the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the experience of medical students and their perceptions. With this, we seek to generate scientific evidence to assess the effects of decisions taken by Educational Institutions and health authorities in the face of this pandemic. To investigate the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the perceptions of medical students regarding their role in supporting a health team, their personal and professional learning.
