This elective is offered to provide the student with experience in an off-campus setting. The student will make arrangements to accompany a mentor or preceptor in his/her office and/or hospital functions during the period of the elective.
Goals: To provide the student an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of the process of research. The student will become familiar with the literature in a given research area, will develop a testable hypothesis, will design appropriate experiments to test the hypothesis and will write up the findings appropriately. The research activities shall have direct relevance to the clinical interests of the student.
The Essentials of Clinical Medicine is a four-semester program designed to equip students with the skills necessary to perform successfully in the Phase III clerkships. The course is organized into two courses which build sequentially on one another, and interdigitate wherever possible with core basic science modules. ECM is designed to ensure a continuity of training for the student across the Phase I and II years in the areas of clinical skill development, clinical content, interdisciplinary collaborative teaching, and evaluation of student performance.

The Cellular and Systems Structures Module has been designed to integrate the basic discipline of Development, Gross Anatomy and Histology. This body of knowledge will emphasize the structure-function relationships at the tissue, organ, and systemic levels of the human body. As such, the Module provides a foundation for understanding normal Physiology and Pathology (MEDI 5215-5255), where altered structure and function of diseased cells, tissues and organs are studied.
The Cellular and Systems Processes Module is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of the biological mechanisms by which the body responds to internal and external stimuli by building on the structure-function knowledge of previous Modules (ITD5115 and ITD5125). Students will understand the pathological responses to these stimuli by examining the interplay between the biochemical and physiological mechanisms, and how the latter can be influenced by genetics.
