    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Curriculum Development
    • Systems Biology in Medicine

    Background:

    • Traditional medical curricula often compartmentalize basic science and clinical knowledge.
    • Integrating organ pathology and clinical information requires a cohesive approach.
    • The University of Ottawa developed a novel program to address these challenges.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To implement and evaluate a modified systems program for medical education.
    • To integrate systems-based learning into whole-class teaching effectively.
    • To emphasize pathology and pathophysiology within a unified curriculum framework.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a modified systems program at the University of Ottawa.
    • Reallocation of 387 lecture and laboratory hours to 12 systems committees.

  • Concurrent instruction in basic science, clinical skills, and systems-based pathology.
  • Program evaluation through student feedback, examinations, and system reviews.

    • Main Results:

    • Successful integration of systems approach into whole-class teaching without increased staff demands.
    • Emphasis on pathology and pathophysiology facilitated by a Coordinating Systems Committee.
    • Effective coordination of interdisciplinary teaching for a single subject.
    • Evaluation methods identified and addressed teaching flaws.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified systems program effectively integrates basic science and clinical concepts.
    • This approach enhances the teaching of pathology and pathophysiology.
    • The program demonstrates a viable model for interdisciplinary medical education.
