Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a new medical approach which develops in international clinical field in recent years, and is the perfect combination of evidence, clinical professional knowledge and the value of patients. In our teaching practice, the idea of EBM was introduced in cultivating the scientific thinking and innovative ability for clinical postgraduate students by means of the organic fusion of teaching and learning and proper teaching approach based on EBM idea. We observed that the implantation of EBM idea can guide the theoretical learning, widens the insights of knowledge, enhances the ability of clinical thinking and innovation, creates the medical education and research, and greatly enhances the quality of postgraduate students in the process of teaching. Taken together, the cultivation of scientific thinking and innovative ability based on EBM idea plays an important role in reforming teaching model and cultivating the innovative talents in educational practice.
