Biomedical knowledge: Having successfully completed this module, students should be able to apply the biomedical knowledge learnt in other preclinical modules to determine the likely diagnosis in a variety of virtual case vignettes. They should be able identify clinical, demographic, and natural history features that, in conjunction with investigations and response to therapeutic intervention will allow discrimination between similar clinical conditions. They should be able to identify the features of clinical conditions that lend themselves to incorporation into exam material. Having arrived at a diagnosis they should be able to place the case in a detailed scientific context.
Professionalism: Having successfully completed this module, students will have demonstrated and improved their capacity to collate and appraise resources and where appropriate to work in groups to optimise efficiency and motivation.
