What is MedLive Exchange (MLX)?
MedLive Exchange (MLX) is a centralized platform that simplifies how medical lectures are discovered, requested, and confirmed across institutions.It connects:
- Academic departments
- Residency & fellowship programs
- Medical educators and subspecialists
All sessions are live and interactive, designed for real-time discussion, Q&A, and case-based learning.
What problem does MLX solve?
Traditionally, live lecture scheduling depended on:
- Personal connections
- Informal introductions
- Long email threads
- Administrative bottlenecks
MLX replaces this fragmented system with:
- Transparent profiles
- Centralized requests
- Direct communication
- Clear confirmation workflows
It reflects how medical education works today — collaborative, cross-institutional, and increasingly global.
What formats are supported?
Common formats include:
- Noon Conference
- Grand Rounds
- Case-Based Didactics
- Board Review
- Clinical Updates
- Case Review Workshop
- Interactive Q&A
Final format is determined collaboratively between institution and lecturer.
Who is MLX for?
MLX is for residency and fellowship programs, departments, and institutions that want to bring in expert lecturers. It is also for lecturers who want to deliver structured, high-quality teaching sessions.
Are lectures live or recorded?

For InstitutionsWho can use MLX?
- Residency programs
- Fellowship programs
- Academic departments
- Teaching hospitals
- Multi-site healthcare systems
MLX supports both intra-institutional and inter-institutional lecture coordination.
Can we maintain an internal only lecturer list?
Yes.Departments may:
- Maintain private internal faculty lists
- Choose what is shared externally
- Expand visibility nationally or internationally when desired
This reduces administrative burden while preserving institutional control.
How are lecturers verified?
MLX conducts a lightweight verification process prior to profile activation, including:
- Institutional affiliation confirmation
- Credential review
- Professional contact validation
The goal is credibility without unnecessary bureaucracy.
How long does scheduling take?
Final scheduling depends on lecturer availability and institutional timelines.
How do lecturer availability settings work (institutional, national, international)?
Each lecturer can choose where they are available:
My institution only, National, or International.
Some lecturers may limit sessions to reduce scheduling overhead or align with their departmental teaching commitments.
How do we request a lecture?
Use the Request a Live Lecture flow on the site.
Share your specialty, audience level (residents/fellows), preferred format, and a few topic options. MLX confirms scope and coordinates the session end to end.
Can our department maintain a private internal lecturer list?
Yes. Departments can keep an internal only list and decide what is shared nationally or internationally. This reduces admin workload and lets institutions control visibility without rebuilding their own tooling.
What information is shown on lecturer profiles?
Profiles are intentionally minimal and scannable: subspecialty, short bio, teaching focus, best live formats, audience level, and sample topics. The goal is fast matching, not long CV pages.
What’s the typical turnaround time after we submit a request or a lecturer profile?
MLX usually responds within 24 hours to confirm next steps or request missing details. Scheduling depends on lecturer availability and your preferred timeframe.
