A very fun afternoon at the @UNSWMedicine#DiversityFest debate about whether medicine should be more heart than hand! Great speakers, passionate arguments, too hard to split: it was a tie! #diversity@UNSW
Toured Mass Gen today with @VladoPerkovic . Visited the Ether Dome - site of first public demonstration of anaesthesia on Oct 16, 1846. #UNSWMedicineInUSA
Case based collaborative learning at Harvard Medical School. Almost no lectures at all. Students in groups of four, critically assessing case based content. How much ‘information transfer’ can occur before the class? #UNSWMedicineInUSA
Visited one of the newest medical schools in USA with @VladoPerkovic today. Dell Medical School at UTexas in Austin. On a mission to revolutionise how people get and stay healthy. Super impressive team; innovative curriculum; outstanding facilities. #UNSWMedicineInUSA
Impressed by UCSF School of Medicine’s ‘new’ BRIDGES Curriculum. Particularly liked the concept of 12 hour mini courses led by expert researchers. Great way for students to deep dive into a topic & researchers to engage with students. #UNSWMedicineInUSA
Awesome to share insights with colleagues from Stanford & UCSF with incoming Dean @VladoPerkovic. Education & Research challenges similar on a global scale. #UNSWMedicineinUSA
