Congenital heart defects are the most common type of birth defects and with improvements in surgical techniques and medical care these babies are living longer and healthier lives. Data indicates that approximately 1 million US children and 1.2million US adults are living with congenital heart disease. Treating congenital heart disease requires an intimate understanding of complex embryology, anatomy and physiology. In this seminar we will look at the fascinating spectrum of anatomical changes that occur in some common congenital heart defects and how these changes can be corrected with various surgical procedures and medical care. Lectures will draw from real patient cases and students will have the opportunity to visit the Stanford Anatomy Lab, engage with virtual reality models of the heart, learn the basics of cardiac ultrasound, and hear from some of the frontline anesthesiologists, surgeons, cardiologists and patients who straddle the line between life and death on a daily basis.

Allows for qualified students to undertake investigations sponsored by individual faculty members. Prerequisite: consent of instructor.

In this survey course we invite speakers form neuroscience disciplines such as psychiatry, nerurology, neurosurgery, anesthesiology and more to discuss innovative work and recent controversies in the field. We center the discussion around critical reading of published work in clinical and preclinical studies. This survey course meets the requirement for the Neuroscience scholarly concentration for the medical scholars research program.

An innovative interdisciplinary field now translates neuroscientific research into design principles to enhance the performance, health, and wellbeing of clinicians and those they serve. Lecturers discuss how built environments impact cognitive and physical function, including focus, teamwork, mental health, and burnout. The needs of neurodiverse and neurotypical users, as well as those with disease or infirmity are considered. Class activities apply design thinking and user experience tools. Final projects describe or illustrate solutions for places where clinicians work, learn, rest, or socialize.

Provides an observational experience as determined by the instructor and student. Prerequisite: consent of instructor.

VISITING: Open to visitors. TYPE OF CLERKSHIP: Elective. DESCRIPTION: This clerkship provides an introduction to the perioperative anesthetic management of the surgical patient. In this clinical setting, and under close faculty and resident supervision, students have an opportunity to learn and apply the principles of preoperative evaluation of patients, intraoperative monitoring techniques, assessment of vital organ status, pharmacology of anesthetic and related drugs, and immediate postoperative management. In addition, students have ample opportunity to learn and practice a variety of technical skills, including airway management and intravenous cannulation, which will be of value in any clinical specialty. Students are assigned to the operating room at the SUMC. Didactic lectures and clinical conferences will be offered throughout the rotation. Students will work closely with pre-assigned faculty and residents during the two-week clerkship. Please note: visiting students must obtain approval from Ms. Yun Tao prior to applying for this clerkship. Please email requests to yuntao@stanford.edu. PREREQUISITES: A major clerkship in medicine or surgery is strongly recommended. PERIODS AVAILABLE: 3-12, full-time for 2 weeks. 5 students per period.
