The Molecules to Medicine module provide the foundation for the entire medical school experience and covers topics in biochemistry, cell biology, physiology, genetics, pharmacology, embryology, hematology, and oncology. Through active small group and team-based learning activities, that are supplemented with interactive faculty instruction, students gain a more in-depth understanding of the normal function of molecules, cells, and tissues in the human body and how DNA mutations and errors in development can disrupt their function and produce clinical disorders. Students develop problem-solving skills through problem-based learning activities that include clinical cases, online tutorials and interactive, personalized, adaptive instruction and self-study. Proposed assessments include formative and summative activities and exams, oral presentations, and self-assessment.
