Topic

The course aims to put the already acquired knowledge into a unique perspective via a new, innovative method, developed by Dr. Krupat (2016) at Harvard Medical School. Each session is built around a clinical case or problem related to an organ/organ system. The topics will be discussed with the help of anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology and basic clinical knowledge. Students will receive the reading material and references, required for the case prior to the course. Students will be expected to process the material individually in order to successfully complete the course. Before each session a short test will be administered to assess the knowledge of the participants. During the sessions, with the guidance of a clinician, experienced in the corresponding field, students will organize their knowledge, as needed to solve clinical cases.
