MED 290: Independent Study with Presence and the Program in Bedside Medicine

Students work with their faculty mentor on projects and studies that are broadly centered around the vision and mission of Presence: The Art and Science of Human Connection and the Program in Bedside Medicine. Please see our websites for updated projects and initiatives - Presence + Program in Bedside Medicine. Currently, we focus on: How do we teach and emphasize to students, residents, physicians (and beyond) in the medical field the need to master bedside skills? How does bedside medicine affect patient care? How has patient care changed with the omnipresence of technology in our lives? How is bedside medicine going to change in the next few decades, centuries? In investigating these questions, students utilize scientific articles and data, engage patients, and collaborate with our faculty and staff. Independent study projects culminate in a presentation to our team, with the potential for posters or manuscripts. Students paired with faculty based on their area of interest and facul more »

MED 296: Being Mortal: Medicine, Mortality and Caring for Older Adults

Over the past century, we've witnessed a significant leap in life expectancy, from an average of 55 years to 80 years. The fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population is the "oldest old" and the prevalence of people reaching 100 years has nearly doubled. This shift prompts underlying questions about the hopes, aspirations, and what matters most in the context of aging, illness, culture, and the end of life. This weekly seminar will feature a diverse lineup of speakers including physicians, scientists, patients and their caregivers, and experts in aging. Upon completion of the course, students will have enhanced their knowledge in geriatrics, palliative medicine, and communication to better care for aging or seriously ill patients and their families. The Autumn and Spring courses vary in speakers and topics.

MED 299M: TRIP: Translational Research Independent Project required of all MTRAM students

TRIP will be a translational research capstone project that will require approximately 5 hours per week 2nd through 4th quarter for a total of about 150 hours and enable each student to test a hypothesis, develop an experimental plan, interpret results, understand the future research plan. Capstones will focus on early clinical translation (T0-T1) involving areas of strength of our M-TRAM faculty, including: drug therapy and delivery, vaccines, immune measurements and therapy and gene measurements and therapy. Project ideas can be student initiated, suggested by the faculty advisors, or arise from experiential learning (Industry and Clinical), but must be approved, supported and monitored by the M-TRAM leadership committee. Upon completion of the project, students will present their final results as an oral presentation and a written report. They will formally present their final results at the student research showcase in the 4th quarter (summer). In addition to the talk students will also be required to prepare a final written report summarizing their project's aims, hypothesis, methods, results, and conclusions. Prerequisite: Application and acceptance to the MTRAM program.

MED 300A: Internal Medicine Core Clerkship

VISITING: Closed to visitors. TYPE OF CLERKSHIP: Required. DESCRIPTION: Teaches the natural history, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of medical illness. Emphasis is placed on acquiring the understanding, skills, and attitudes desirable in a scientific and compassionate physician. Students record histories, physical examinations, and laboratory data for patients for whom they are responsible and present their findings, together with their diagnoses and treatment plans, at rounds and conferences. Developing sound clinical reasoning skills is continuously emphasized. An essential aspect of the clerkship is the students' gradual assumption of direct responsibility for, and full-time involvement in, patient care with the house staff and faculty team. To take advantage of the differences in patient populations and teaching staffs of the four hospitals, students spend three weeks at either SUMC or PAVAMC, and three weeks at either SCVMC in San Jose or KPMC in Santa Clara.

To take advantage of the differences in patient populations and teaching staffs of the four hospitals, students spend three weeks at either SUMC or PAVAMC, and three weeks at either SCVMC in San Jose or KPMC in Santa Clara. The resulting six week experience is an integrated curriculum designed to cover the essentials of internal medicine. The Department of Medicine supervises a random draw-based assignment to two of the four locations shortly before the beginning of each odd-numbered clerkship period. A passing grade will require both a satisfactory performance at both clinical sites and passing the NBME Subject Exam at the end of 6 weeks. PREREQUISITES: None. PERIODS AVAILABLE: 1-12, full time for 8 weeks, 18 students per period. CLERKSHIP DIRECTOR: John Kugler, M.D., jkugler@stanford.edu and Poonam Hosamani, M.D., poonamh@stanford.edu.

MED 302A: Infectious Diseases Clerkship

VISITING: Open to visitors. TYPE OF CLERKSHIP: Elective. DESCRIPTION: The infectious diseases clerkship features an active inpatient service at Stanford Hospital, which averages two to four new consults per day. As a consulting specialty service within the Department of Medicine, participants are able to see a wide variety of community-acquired and nosocomial infections. Particular emphasis is placed on clinical and diagnostic reasoning, as well as in developing a good working knowledge of antimicrobial agents and a rational approach for their use. The training and teaching opportunities are rich because of the case mix (medical, surgical, ICU) and broad patient populations that are seen at Stanford Hospital. The service is supervised on a daily basis by the infectious diseases fellow, who will work closely with students rotating on the clinical service. Students attend daily patient rounds, weekly infectious diseases conferences, and may attend other research or patient-care conferenc more »
