This paper aims to make a first approach to the role that researching can play in medical learning process and in development of self-regulated and self-directed learning professionals. A reflection of pedagogical aspects concerning the current situation of education in medicine is proposed, then an analysis of certain roles and purposes of researching in medical schools and its interaction with the world of education is presented and finally current educational strategies to generate autonomous learning and metacognition is evaluated. To explore these aspects, the results of structured interviews applied to students and teachers, from different medical schools, are given during the analysis. Researching allows the student to access knowledge from four perspectives: developing of metacognition skills, complex thinking, getting away from a passive and traditional point of view, and finally learning to learn.
