The implementation of comprehensive clinical data repositories is accompanied by implications for the medical informatics curriculum for pre-MD medical students. There is also the risk that electronic health records will detract from students' acquisition of basic skills in inquiry and information management. It is possible, however, to create an application within the data repositories that will provide students with opportunities to practice those skills as they follow the evaluation and management of patients.
