As evidence based medicine grows at exponential speeds, clinicians are met with the growing challenge of keeping up to date within their specialty even as inter-specialty interactions require increasing knowledge of clinical information outside of their specialty.
I believe that this challenge requires a new model of medical education – one that is engaging, exciting, and – most of all – efficient.
This webpage, the product of a research year in transfusion medicine, provides two new models of learning:
- Socratic E-Learning – Instead of starting with an informational data dump, this course dives right into relevant clinical scenarios for RBC Transfusion. It layers gamification on a question based Socratic framework to provide evidence based guidelines.
- Information Dense Didactics – This lecture series (1, 2, 3, 4) tackles CP board-relevant questions in immunohematology, a field that is tragically underserved in many residency textbooks. Using the rapid fire “Lessig” model of presentation, the highly navigatable lectures provide both a efficient construct for reviewing information as well as a rich resource for learning content.
It is my hope that you find the same joy, in exploring these courses, that I found in creating them.
