Thinking Like an Expert

In this conversation, Mark and Matt Low discussed the limitations of our knowledge from university and the pursuit of expertise in practice.  

What are the potential challenges of community building and avoiding confirmation bias?  

How does one diversify one's learning community and be open to different perspectives?   

Why is AAOMPT's opposition to moving to a more broad definition of MSK care and expertise potentially problematic? 

Mark and Matt suggest that physical therapy needs to let go of some traditional practices to evolve and better serve patients.
