Source hierarchy
We prioritise dedicated programme pages, official hospital and university pages, professional-society announcements and recognised application systems. Third-party summaries may help locate a programme but are not sufficient evidence for publication.
Status rules
- “Open” requires evidence for a current application cycle.
- Past deadlines are not silently rolled forward.
- Programme existence does not prove that applications are currently accepted.
- Uncertain or historical records are labelled conservatively.
Applicant information
Eligibility, international access, funding, accreditation and clinical participation are published only when the official source states them. Otherwise, the field remains visibly unconfirmed.
Corrections
Institutions, programme leaders, fellows and readers may request a correction by providing the relevant programme URL and an official source supporting the change. Submissions are reviewed before publication.
