The aim of this paper is to contribute with an initial approach to the study of turning points in medical students training. Until now, there has been few research regarding turning points in the field of medical education. This concept highlights a variety of events and experiences that have a significant impact in life paths. Turning points in education are not easily visible, they often go unnoticed and they are only recognized years after graduation. It is relevant to study turning points in student's life paths in the field of medical education, both in terms of capturing and understanding a phenomenon that is difficult to identify, as well as from the demands that imply its recognition and promotion within the medical school.
