MEDI 5005 - Integrative Science Selective (8 Credit Hours) The primary purpose of this course is to provide an opportunity for an in-depth exploration of the basic sciences that serve as the foundations of clinical practice, but at a more advanced level than what was presented in the pre-clerkship curriculum. Learners will explore how basic sciences inform many aspects of clinical medicine (e.g., understanding how patients experience disease—and health, generation of differential diagnoses and management plans, and monitoring disease progression and treatment outcomes).
Course content will be split evenly between basic and clinical sciences and will be developed through the collaboration between basic scientists and clinicians. Each “collaboration” will be focused on a clinical area in which the intersection between the basic and clinical sciences is particularly evident. Students will choose their selective based on their area of clinical interest and identification of learning gaps to be addressed prior to their residency training. Depending on the particular collaboration, students may experience basic and clinical science content as separate or integrated sessions. The course will be a “hands-on,” actively engaged course, with a focus on both patient care experiences and applications of the basic sciences.
