In social sciences a paradigm shift replaces the former way of thinking or organizing with a radically different way of thinking or organizing. When enough significant anomalies have accrued against a current paradigm, the scientific discipline is thrown into a state of crisis. During this crisis, new ideas are tried. Eventually a new paradigm is formed, which gains its own new followers, and an intellectual "battle" takes place between the followers of the new paradigm and the hold-outs of the old paradigm.

  • The Future Role of Medical Graduates in Pathology Services
    The Royal College of Pathologists The future role of medical graduates and consultants in pathology services This document was placed on the Fellows’ and Members’ Area of The Royal College of Pathologists’ website for consultation between 2 March and 23 March 2004. Twelve items of feedback were received, which were considered by the President in preparing this final version. Professor John A Lee Director of Publications This document was archived in Spring 2016 Further copies of this document can be obtained from the College website at www.rcpath.org © The Royal College of Pathologists 2004 INTRODUCTION 1. Defining the role of medical graduates in pathology services has concerned the College almost since its inception. In 1976, Sir Robert Williams, the fourth President, commented: “Next there is the question as to what pathologists in the various disciplines will (or should) be doing in the future, with particular relation perhaps to increased involvement in clinical work; here we come up against the sometimes delicate question of the distribution of duties and responsibilities between medically qualified pathologists, non-medical graduate scientists and laboratory technicians or scientific officers.” 2. The purposes, roles and duties of medical graduates in many other specialties have also been questioned, as non-medical healthcare professionals gradually assumed tasks and responsibilities traditionally associated with General Medical Council (GMC) registration. Writing in 1994, Sir Kenneth Calman, the former Chief Medical Officer (England), considered that doctors were essentially for diagnosis, a process requiring medical judgement: “However, there is one aspect of practice of profound importance which is generally carried out by doctors – that is in making a diagnosis and assessing its consequences.
