This book teaches medical students basic science and clinical concepts utilizing over 30 cases that cover all major organ systems. Case-based learning has become a core way to teach the application of foundational material in the basic and clinical sciences in the pre-clerkship years. Medical schools’ curriculums tend to be traditional, organ systems-based, or problem-based. There are many discipline-based textbooks for students to use in a traditional approach to medical education. For the organ systems-based approach, there are many books dedicated to each organ system, where clinical relevance is tied in with basic science concepts. In a problem-based curriculum, students use clinical cases to stimulate inquiry, knowledge application, and critical thinking. While there are many books available for faculty to learn how to teach in a problem-based approach, there is a paucity of textbooks that provide the breadth and depth of clinical cases integrated with basic medical sciences. This book serves to fill that gap.
