INTM 9545 Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End
In Being Mortal, bestselling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: how medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its ending. After experiencing the real world of healthcare as a 4th year medical student, take a step back and join us in reflection as we delve in to Dr. Gawande's book. Meet periodically with faculty to debrief and share experiences. Let's see where Dr. Gawande's book takes and if we can accept his challenge to have doctors not just ensure health and survival, but "to enable well-being."
