Title: Medicine & Horsemanship: An Outdoor, Equine Assisted Learning Course for DoctorPatient Relationship
Description:
An outdoor experience working with horses to develop interpersonal skills for the clinicianpatient and peer-peer relationship. A challenge throughout a clinical career is to conduct
relationships with patients and colleagues in a manner that is professional, perceptive,
confident, and authentic. Horses mirror and magnify our intentions and behaviors. Working
with horses requires sensitivity to nonverbal cues, discrimination in the quality and amount of
physical contact, and an awareness of one's emotional state, all important skills for relating to
patients. Horses give non-judgmental feedback about our personal communication and
leadership styles and our ability to operate from a place empathy and kindness. The course also
teaches how to recognize subjectivity in judgment and how to overcome fear and immobility in
the face of uncertainty. No riding is required and no previous horse experience is assumed.
Open to anyone with direct patient care responsibility, space permitting. Limit 12 students.

Title: Intellectual Propery: Scientific Evidence in Patent Litigation
Description:
(Same as LAW 343) Open to clinical MD and graduate students. Explores the role of scientific
experts in patent infringement litigation. In other areas of the law where scientific experts are
used -- medical malpractice, environmental law, criminal law -- the science itself is often in
dispute. In patent cases, however, the parties generally agree on the science. This affects the
relationship between the lawyer and the expert and the substantive content of their interactions.
Patent experts need to be able to explain science to the judge and jury. But they also must help
the litigators choose which legal issues to press and which to concede, and to be aware of how
the complications of the science might help, hurt, obscure or reveal how the law should be
applied to the facts. The class examines judicial decisions and trial documents involving
scientific evidence in patent litigation, followed by work in teams on final projects: simulations
of expert testimony in a patent case. Simulations are performed at the end of the quarter before
panels of practicing patent lawyers. Prerequisite: graduate students must have completed their
required coursework and have TGR status.

Alzheimer's Disease
Description:
Examines four aspects of Alzheimer's disease. Goal is to give participants a clearer sense of the
struggle that patients actually feel and experience during the progression of the disease. Also
explores difficulties and issues that many relatives face in assuming the responsibility of fulltime caregiver for an Alzheirmers patient. Addresses ethical considerations on genetic testing,
should these advances be embraced or should we be wary of the knowledge they may bring?
Finally, explores the notion of service through engaged scholarship by exposing oneself to
cutting-edge discoveries as researchers attempt to unravel the puzzle.

Title: Practice of Medicine I
Description:
Six quarter series extending throughout the first two years of the MD program, interweaving
core skills training in medical interviewing and the physical examination with other major
threads addressing the context of medical practice: information literacy, nutrition principles,
clinical epidemiology and biostatistics, evidence-based practice, psychiatry, biomedical ethics,
health policy, population health. Core clinical skills are acquired through hands-on practice, and
evaluated through an extensive program of simulated medical encounters, in which students
interview, examine, and manage patients in a mock clinic. The information literacy thread
introduces students to informatics and knowledge management, biomedical informatics, and
evidence-based medicine searching. Nutrition principles are acquired through interactive, webbased instruction, and reinforced through problem-based learning cases, which run in parallel to
the basic science components over the first year. In epdemiology students learn the taxonomy
of epidemiological studies, how to critically read a journal article, and how to recognize and
understand the concepts behind different clinical study designs. Topics include bias,
confounding, diagnostic testing and screening, and ""how statistics can lie."" Psychiatry
introduces students to the unique role of medical students in talking with patients, the difference
between process and content in patient communication, how to respond to breaks in the patientphysician relationship, and the relationship between the quality of the patient-physician
interaction and health outcomes. Health care policy covers such topics as health insurance,
physician payment, health care costs, access, measurement and improvement of quality,
regulation and health care reform. Biomedical ethics includes important ethical issues in
medical practice, such as confidentiality, privacy, and ethical issues relating to medical
students. The population health curriculum exposes students to concepts of public health,
community action, and advocacy, and includes a year-long, community-based project. At the
end of this quarter students participate in a performance-based assessment of the medical
interview skills.

Clinical Reasoning teaching rounds and small group, Clinical Practicum, Clinical Procedures /
Introduction to the Management of the Ill Patient simulation (IMIP), Advanced Clinical Skills,
and Psychiatry. Within Clinical Reasoning sessions, students analyze case vignettes that
integrate course themes described above with clinical medicine scenarios. Within Practicum,
students spend alternate one-half day(s) per week in a clinical setting with a supervising faculty
member, practicing medical interview and physical examination skills. Advanced Clinical
Skills sessions provide hands-on practice working with faculty and patients on particular
clinical themes that correlate with the basic science curriculum as well as the clinical
curriculum. Specialists often co-teach these sessions, providing a focused didactic followed by

Title: Internal Medicine: Body as Text
Description:
Body as Text refers to the idea that every patient's body tells a story. The narrative includes the
past and present of a person's social and medical condition; it is a demonstration of the
phenotype. The art of reading the body as text was at its peak in the first half of the 20th
century, but as technology has become ascendant, bedside skills and the ability to read the text
have faded. Beyond scientific knowledge and medical facts, it is this often forgotten craft which
is at the heart of the excitement of being an internist. This course introduces students to the art
of the clinical exam, to developing a clinical eye, and learning to see the body in a completely
different way.

Title: Measles and Sneezles and Things That Go Mumps in the Night
Description:
A study of measles (until recently one of the leading causes of death in the world and the most
contagious disease agent ever studied) and its relatives in the paramyxovirus family, including
mumps, respiratory syncytial virus, hendra, and nipah, as well as a number of important animal
pathogens. Investigates the nature of viruses using the paramyxoviruses as a paradigm. Topics
include: the history of this devastating group of pathogens; basic aspects of paramyxovirus
taxonomy and molecular virology; viral epidemiology, emergence, and eradication, including
the pioneering studies of Peter Panum; the use, misuse, and abuse of science; the interactions
between pathogen and host and how this interplay leads to disease, including the appearance of
a bizarre brain complication with 100% mortality; the politics and economics of infection; how
a putative link between the measles vaccine and autism entered the public eye, and how it
refuses to disappear despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Field trips, guest speakers,
student presentations. No science background necessary.

Description:
Utilizes the idiom of photography to learn about nature, enhance observation, and explore
scientific concepts. Builds upon the pioneering photographic work of Eadweard J. Muybridge
on human and animal locomotion. A secondary goal is to learn the grammar, syntax,
composition, and style of nature photography to enhance the use of this medium as a form of
scientific communication and also to explore the themes of change across time and space.
Scientific themes to be explored include: taxonomy, habitat preservation, climate change;
species diversity; survival and reproductive strategies; ecological niches and coevolution,
carrying capacity and sustainability, population densities, predation, and predator-prey
relationships, open-space management, the physics of photography. Extensive use of field trips
and class critque.

Title: Computational Modeling of Microbial Communities
Description:
Innovative new sequencing technologies are permitting the generation of massive amounts of
sequence data and changing the way we think about and pursue biological questions. Coupled
to these opportunities are tremendous challenges for biologists to grapple with the manipulation
and analysis of large datasets and to address quantitative questions on a systems scale. The goal
of this course is to provide biologists with basic computational tools and knowledge to confront
large datasets in a quantitative manner. Students will learn basic programming skills in Matlab
and Perl. Covered material will include: image analysis, bioinformatics algorithms, reactiondiffusion modeling, Monte Carlo algorithms, and population dynamics. Students will apply
computational skills to a miniature research project studying the human microbiome or biofuelrelated photosynthetic microbial communities. Spr 2012, (Huang, K., Sonnenburg, J., and Vora,

Title: Computational Neuroscience
Description:
Computational approaches to neuroscience applied at levels ranging from neurons to networks.
Addresses two central questions of neural computation: How do neurons compute; and how do
networks of neurons encode/decode and store information? Focus is on biophysical (HodgkinHuxley) models of neurons and circuits, with emphasis on application of commonly available
modeling tools (NEURON, MATLAB) to issues of neuronal and network excitability. Issues
relevant to neural encoding and decoding, information theory, plasticity, and learning.
Fundamental concepts of neuronal computation; discussion focus is on relevant literature
examples of proper application of these techniques. Final project. Recommended for
Neuroscience Program graduate students; open to graduate, medical, and advanced
undergraduate students with consent of instructor. Prerequisite: NBIO 206. Recommended:
facility with linear algebra and calculus.

Data analysis and visualization techniques commonly encountered in neuroscience research.
Fundamentals of the MATLAB computing environment, programming and debugging, data
import/export, data structures, plotting, simple image processing, introduction to statistical
tools. Assumes no programming background. Examples and assignments draw from a range of
topics in neuroscience, for example, event detection in patch-clamp recordings, spike-triggered
averages, spike rasters and PSTHS, cell counting in flourescence images, regressions, and PCA.
Assignments are practical in nature, demonstrating how to implement specific analyses that a
neuroscience student is likely to encounter. The skills taught are broadly applicable and a
neuroscience background is not necessary.

Title: Perspectives on the Abortion Experience in Western Fiction
Description:
Explores the role of media in delivering abortion-related messages as well as the broader
questions of how abortion and related issues are fundamentally integrated into the social fabric
of US and global societies .Abortion remains one of the most controversial and polarizing
challenges of our time. Yet, it has been a clinical, social, political, and cultural fact in a broad
swath of societies for centuries. As is common for such lightning rod issues, the topic of
abortion has featured prominently in a number of novels and films. Each treatment provides a
unique perspective on at least one aspect of abortion, whether it be clinical, social, political or
cultural. Examination of how abortion is portrayed in novels and films provides the student of
history, anthropology, and biology not only with insights into the author's or director's
perspectives, but also into societal attitudes and mores.

Title: Deviants in Literature
Description:
Many literary works are enhanced by, in fact demand, a psychological perspective to achieve a
fully informed reading. In The Devils Dostoevsky uses the issues and process of anarchy as a
platform on which to develop some of the most unforgettable characters in literary history.
Death in Venice contains among its many themes the darker dynamic of paraphilia. Guilt
searches for a validating crime in Kafka's The Penal Colony. Capote uses a journalistic style to
manage horrible fact during In Cold Blood. Conrad shows that telling a story of the journey
outward is more nearly an analysis of the journey inward in Heart of Darkness. Albee's Zoo
Story asks whether the man on the street is prepared to confront his own worst nightmare. Close
reading of works such as these presents opportunities to learn about character pathology and to
expand traditional approaches to literary criticism by applying a psychological perspective.

For preclinical students; provides a background in and integrates knowledge of surgical
anatomy and therapy. Surgical or operative anatomy differs from gross anatomy in that the area
exposed during surgery may be limited, the dissection may require exposing other seemingly
unrelated anatomic structures with unique landmarks, and the procedure may require unusual
technical facility. The course provides an opportunity for students to understand the goals of
representative surgical procedures (translating pathophysiology to surgical decision making to
actual incision). Students learn surgical skills and perform the dissection of a number of
commonly performed operations in the cadaver laboratory. The course emphasizes hands-on
participation in surgical procedures in the laboratory and is taught by attending physicians in
general, cardiothoracic, vascular, plastic, head and neck, urologic, and orthopedic surgery.
