<p>This course will examine the ways physicians think about clinical problem solving and will help participants develop competence in the building blocks of clinical problem solving. The professor will use cases to illustrate different reasoning strategies and will discuss how both correct and incorrect diagnoses result from these strategies. Participants will use sample clinical cases to practice what they have learned through the lectures. Finally, the professor will discuss strategies to help students and young physicians read textbooks and articles in a way that enhances their ability to use information in the clinical environment.</p> <p>The weekly assignments will ask students to apply the concepts and principles taught in this course to various diseases, syndromes, and diagnoses; however, detailed information about medical terminology and disease states will not be taught in the course. Please read the "Recommended Readings" section below for information on outside resources that will be useful for completing assignments for all students. All students, regardless of their background, are encouraged to use a medical textbook to help accurately complete course assignments.</p></div></div><ul class="teachers"><li><span class="font-weight-bold">Instructor: </span><a href="https://courses.ucsf.edu/user/profile.php?id=7591">Dylan</a></li><li><span class="font-weight-bold">Instructor: </span><a href="https://courses.ucsf.edu/user/profile.php?id=29317">Catherine R Lucey</a></li><li><span class="font-weight-bold">Instructor: </span><a href="https://courses.ucsf.edu/user/profile.php?id=34267">Geoffrey Stetson</a></li><li><span class="font-weight-bold">Instructor: </span><a href="https://courses.ucsf.edu/user/profile.php?id=4980">Steven</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div></div><br /></div> </section> </div> </div> </div> <footer id="page-footer" class="footer-popover bg-white"> <div data-region="footer-container-popover"> <button class="btn btn-icon bg-secondary icon-no-margin btn-footer-popover" data-action="footer-popover" aria-label="Show footer"> <i class="icon fa fa-question fa-fw " aria-hidden="true" ></i> </button> </div> <div class="footer-content-popover container" data-region="footer-content-popover"> <div class="footer-section p-3 border-bottom"> <div class="logininfo"> <div class="logininfo">You are not logged in.
