MED 712. SRCC-Introduction to Global Public Health.0 Credits.

From the Declaration of Alma-Ata to the Millennium Development Goals, there have been more than 30 years of good will but limited accomplishment in bringing health to all. Health is an essential human right, but much of the world's poor still do not have access to the most basic public health services. This is best illustrated in Africa where there is the double burden of poverty and communicable disease. The failure to provide equitable health and the emergence of new infectious diseases with pandemic potential also threaten world security. Introduction to Global Public Health explores what is meant by global health, how health is measured and what are the major conditions that particularly affect the poor. The course begins with an overview of the topic and reviews basic principles of public health. It then considers the major global communicable diseases (e.g., HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis), maternal-child health, as well as provides an overview of non- communicable conditions. After defining the problems, strategies in the control of disease and achieving global health are explored.

MED 713. SRCC-Biocultural Approaches to Medicine.0 Credits.

Anthropology is the holistic study of humans. Anthropologists study all aspects of human existence, which are biological, ecological and cultural in nature, not as collections of individual parts, but as components that must work together to create a functional whole. The study of medicine can be approached in a similar manner. The meaning of health, illness and disease is something that we often take for granted; yet, these are concepts that have a profound cultural basis. In this course, students use a biocultural perspective to explore the social, ecological and biological dimensions of the factors that influence health and well-being, the experience and distribution of illness, the prevention and treatment of sickness, healing processes, the social relations of therapy management and the cultural importance and utilization of pluralistic medical systems. They use these concepts to discuss issues relating to diet and nutrition, growth and development, reproductive health, aging, infectious diseases, globalization, social inequality, mental health and health disparities.

Prerequisites: None

MED 714. SRCC-Creative Writing for Health Professionals.0 Credits.

Using creative writing techniques, medical students are expected to write creative (reflective) essays related to their professional experiences.

MED 729. Cancer Immunotherapy.0 Credits.

The role the immune system plays in combating cancer is a topic that has been investigated for over 100 years. But it has only recently been successfully harnessed in drug development. This developed "immunotherapy" has made a significant impact in medicine for several reasons. Among them is that, while immunotherapy is not curative in all cases, it has offered an alternative approach to treat cancer that is otherwise refractory to traditional chemotherapy. The goal of this course is to introduce students to the immunotherapy field and its impact in cancer treatment. Students learn the history of how immunotherapy was developed, and the current clinical use. In particular the proposed mechanism of function, adverse effects and future directions of immunotherapy are addressed.

MED 810. Coaching for Adaptive Learning.0 Credits.

Medical school is not easy because it is preparing students for a rigorous career in medicine where people's lives and livelihoods are at stake. Cultivating and strengthening a growth mindset, seeing challenges as opportunities to learn, adapt, and grow is increasingly important to the 21st Century medical education. This is a School of Medicine course in which medical students develop foundational knowledge and skills in self-regulation and adaptive learning. Self-regulation concerns self-initiated and self-monitored activities, practices, and behaviors that learners engage in to pursue academic mastery. Adaptive learners observe, appraise, and adjust their practices in response to learning challenges. Students will gain competence in habits of mind necessary for overcoming contemporary academic struggles, and which also foster lifelong learning in medicine. These habits of mind support making connections between formal knowledge and experiential learning - including important skills of curiosity; engaging and building rapport with peers; leadership of self and others; external- and self-appraisal that allows comprehension of gaps in knowledge or attitude and the need to change; personal and professional development-seeking to gain new expertise; giving and receiving feedback that enables oneself and others to thrive and excel; setting priorities and planning for learning; mastering time management; and balancing fulfillment of personal and curricular responsibilities.
