All, We think you might find our latest blog post interesting. It's about research in which an online survey of medical staff at two large hospital trusts in England was conducted. Nearly all the 109 responses included free-text comments.
Unsurprisingly, the respondents - all medical professionals - all consult Wikipedia. Worth a read, I think! It's at http://blog.wikimedia.org.uk/2012/04/doctors-use-but-dont-rely-totally-on-wikipedia/ We owe a big thanks to Suzanne Hardy of Newcastle University<http://www.medev.ac.uk/> for bringing the research to our attention, and Dr David Mathieson of the University of Nottingham for help with this summary. Big thanks also go to Martin Poulter, who facilitated things at our end.
