Clinical Skills |
0 |
College of Osteopathic Med |
This course is designed to enable students to maintain and further develop their clinical skills during the Ph.D. portion of the DO/PhD Program curriculum. Each term of the graduate portion of the Program, the student will spend one afternoon per month in the Academic Health Care Center observing and participating in patient care under the superervision of an NYITCOM clinician. These interactions will reinforce and enhance clinical skills the student has attained during the first two years of medical school.

Laboratory Rotation I |
3 |
College of Osteopathic Med |
This course will provide students with an introduction to the research activities on-going in core faculty laboratories. During each Laboratory Rotation, the student will work full-time with a faculty mentor on a defined research project. The student will learn the theoretical underpinnings to a specific research area and the research techniques used to investigate questions in that area. The student is expected to participate in all laboratory activities including, but not limited to, experimentation, lab meetings, journal clubs, reading research articles related to the designated research topic and informal science discussions.

Reading & Writing of Biomedical & Clinical Research I |
3 |
College of Osteopathic Med |
This course is designed to teach students the essential skills required to effectively communicate the results of scientific research. The course will review principles of clear, persuasive writing, and apply these writing principles to the structures and styles of primary scientific research manuscripts, reviews, and grant proposals. The course will also teach the processes of peer review of manuscripts and research proposals. Readings and discussion of a diverse area of biomedical and clinical sciences will stimulate the students' critical thinking about how to evaluate and produce research literature. Focused writing assignments will provide introductory training on how to write a scientific manuscript and learn about all phases of manuscript and proposal submission, peer review, and revision.

Form & Function from Genotype to Phentotype I |
3 |
College of Osteopathic Med |
This course will focus on functional, structural, and developmental similarity across life and how observations in one species can be applied across the spectrum of life. Causal explanations of these similarities will involve the key concepts of homology and convergence, as well as how development can conserve or change form. Particular emphasis will be placed on how model organisms inform treatments of disease in humans, but students will be challenged to find appropriate models for other species. The course is divided among four exemplar organs/anatomical regions, the heart, kidney, limbs, and inner ear. These particular regions are chosen because many aspects of these regions/organs are fairly well understood whereas other aspects are the foci of research labs at NYITCOM.
