Abstract

The teaching of legal and forensic medicine in Spain is undergoing a period of profound change. With the implementation of the new curricula based on the “Bologna Plan”, undergraduate teaching in medical schools has generally lost in quantitative importance compared to previous curricula. However, postgraduate training, and in particular, the specialty of legal and forensic medicine in residency training, has made very significant progress. A 4-year specialisation, with rotations in the Institutes of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences and the subsidised health centres, should provide the necessary training for future forensic doctors in Spain.

Resumen

La enseñanza de la Medicina Legal y Forense en España se encuentra en un periodo de cambio profundo. Con la aplicación de los nuevos planes de estudio basados en el “Plan Bolonia”, la enseñanza de pregrado impartida en las facultades de medicina ha perdido en general importancia cuantitativa respecto a los planes de estudio previo. Por contra, la enseñanza postgraduada, y específicamente la especialidad de Medicina Legal y Forense en régimen de residencia, ha supuesto un avance muy significativo. Una especialidad de cuatro años, con rotatorios en los IMLCF y en los centros sanitarios concertados, debe proporcionar la formación necesaria para los futuros médicos forenses en España.
