Back to Basics Options

Back to Basics (BtB)

The Neoplasia and Radiologic/Pathologic Correlation in Disease are two seminar options offered by the Department. They share a primary goal of reintroducing fundamental principles in the basic sciences. It is hoped that, following the clerkships, students will gain a new appreciation of the basic sciences as the pillars of the practice of medicine and as the essential elements of future scientific development.
