This falls in line with what other medical schools, including Standford, University of California-Irvine and University of Central Florida have one over the past few months.

 

So how are students using the iPad? There's a push for replace traditional text books with e-books. Some schools are encouraging students to use the iPad in the cadaver lab, from viewing anatomy to pathology slides. For note taking, iAnnotate, an annoations app, is growing in popularity.

 

No doubt, Apple's iPad will continue to enamor the medical community.
