ANTHRO 148: Health, Politics, and Culture of Modern China (ANTHRO 248, CHINA 155A, CHINA 255A)

One of the most generative regions for medical anthropology inquiry in recent years has been Asia. This seminar is designed to introduce upper division undergraduates and graduate students to the methodological hurdles, representational challenges, and intellectual rewards of investigating the intersections of health, politics, and culture in contemporary China. This course is the same as OSPBEIJ 55. Students may not earn credit for both ANTHRO 148/248/ CHINA 155A/255A and OSPBEIJ 55.

BIOE 70Q: Medical Device Innovation

BIOE 70Q invites early undergraduates to apply design thinking to the creation of healthcare technologies. Students will learn about the variety of factors that shape healthcare innovation, and through hands-on design projects, will invent their own solutions to clinical needs. Class guests will include engineers, doctors, entrepreneurs, and others who have helped bring ideas from concept to clinical use. No previous engineering coursework or experience is required.

BIOE 374A: Biodesign Innovation: Needs Finding and Concept Creation (ME 368A, MED 272A)

In this two-quarter course series ( BIOE 374A/B, MED 272A/B, ME 368A/B, OIT 384/5), multidisciplinary student teams identify real-world unmet healthcare needs, invent new health technologies to address them, and plan for their implementation into patient care. During the first quarter (winter), students select and characterize an important unmet healthcare problem, validate it through primary interviews and secondary research, and then brainstorm and screen initial technology-based solutions. In the second quarter (spring), teams select a lead solution and move it toward the market through prototyping, technical re-risking, strategies to address healthcare-specific requirements (regulation, reimbursement), and business planning. Final presentations in winter and spring are made to a panel of prominent health technology experts and/or investors. Class sessions include faculty-led instruction and case studies, coaching sessions by industry specialists, expert guest lecturers, and int more »

EASTASN 117: Health and Healthcare Systems in East Asia (EASTASN 217)

This course will discuss population health and healthcare systems in contemporary China, Japan, and Korea (north and south), in comparative perspective with other health systems. Using primarily the lens of social science, especially health economics, we will analyze recent developments in East Asian health policy, in comparison to other health systems of the world. Topics include the social determinants of health, demographic transition and population aging, control of infectious and chronic non-communicable diseases, healthcare financing, health insurance, health service delivery, payment incentives, competition, pharmaceutical policy, long-term care, and regulation. Although some background in Asian Studies, economics, and/or global health will be useful, no prior knowledge of economics or health policy is expected or required.
