About the Course

This course introduces learners to a variety of infectious diseases using a patient-centered, story-based approach. Through illustrated, short videos, learners will follow the course of each patient’s illness, from initial presentation to resolution. Integrating the relevant microbiology, pathophysiology and immunology, this course aims to engage and entice the learner towards future studies in microbiology, immunology and infectious diseases. The patient-centered videos included in this course were created as part of the Re-imagining Medical Education initiative, led by Charles Prober MD, Senior Associate Dean of Medical Education at the Stanford School of Medicine. This initiative was the first of its kind to explore the collaborative creation of foundational medical education online content by inter-institutional teams of faculty. The content presented in this course was created by faculty from Stanford University School of Medicine, in collaboration with The University of Washington School of Medicine, Duke University School of Medicine, UCSF School of Medicine, and The University of Michigan Medical School. Support for this initiative was provided by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Burke Family Foundation.

Case study based courses are better than simple theoretical as it included complete clinical analysis, for a pharmacist it had lots of new information, so highly appreciated for including this course.

Great course even for non-professionals. Helped understand unknown reason health conditions when doctors struggled to make a diagnosis or even find any particular reason for current health conditions.

Really interesting course, but too much medical jargon for lay people who have not been clinically trained - I think it would be useful if it was simplified a little and focused mainly on the general concept & process of infection. The medical terms, although important, sometimes takes attention away from the whole picture and loses the fundamental teaching. Great great illustrations!

So far, the cases have been excellent in scope and presentation. However, the glossaries and especially the transcripts severely need proofreading. As for the questions after each case, they are too few and too easy. They don't reflect the complexity and information of the case presentations.

It's a well explained course, no doubt. But the level at which it's conducted is more suited for 2nd year medical students who've just started their clinical postings.
