Popis: During the novel coronavirus pandemic outbreak, medical education has been inevitably disrupted, while the clinical exposure of many medical students has been hindered. The current article investigates the student role in this large-scale health crisis, in terms of providing for the continuity of medical training and addressing the growing needs of healthcare systems. By presenting different medical education policies implemented worldwide, new perspectives on student involvement are being illuminated. Even during pandemics, students should be motivated to actively serve. The formation of a clear framework for students' roles enhances the preparedness of the medical education community for related future challenges.
