Medical education is at a crossroads. Rapid advances in AI, digital technologies, and global interconnectedness are reshaping how we teach and learn medicine. While these shifts bring opportunities for innovation, equity, and collaboration across borders, they also expose paradoxes like widening digital divides, challenges to access, and the erosion of the human touch in healthcare. This Ignite Talk will explore how medical education can no longer remain confined to local contexts, but must adapt to a shared global framework. It will highlight the promise of cross-border collaboration, the risks of neglecting compassion and humanism, and a vision for restoring the heart of healing in a technology-driven era. Ultimately, it calls on us to cultivate globally connected, yet deeply human-centered medical education that prepares tomorrow’s leaders and healers.
