Student experience

the class

Introduction to core basic science, pathophysiologic, and diagnostic principles requisite for the care and treatment of patients with musculoskeletal, neurologic, and psychiatric presentations and disorders. Basic science concepts include those from the traditional disciplines of cell biology, histology, biochemistry, anatomy, embryology, neuroscience, and behavioral science. Regular integration of these topics with their pathologic and pathophysiologic counterparts. Integration of content related to other competency domains, or "longitudinal threads", that include patient care communication, evidence based medicine, health information technology, quality improvement patient safety, professionalism, scientific inquiry and public health.
