EMBRACE Module Improves the Skills of Undergraduate Medical Students in Effectively Breaking the Bad News: A Case-Control Study
This study aims to assess the impact of training undergraduate medical students to deliver bad news effectively using the "EMBRACE" (Empowering Medical students' skills in BReaking bAd news with Compassion and Empathy) Module. This randomized case-control study involved medical students from the first, second and third professional years (Study group N=75, Control group N=75).For the study group, the "EMBRACE" modules were distributed. Then, a 1-hour training session on effectively delivering bad news was followed by an MCQ test and OSCE with response, interpretation, and communication skills stations. Participants' feedba...

With the relative scarcity of clinical exercise physiologists in the US, pharmacists are expected to provide lifestyle advice to their patients, especially in community (i.e. retail) pharmacy settings, but student pharmacists typically receive no formal or informal training in exercise physiology and prescription.

A Cross-Disciplinary Approach to Learning Medical Physiology and Behavioural Skills Involving Drama Students Performing as Simulated Patients
Adv Physiol Educ. 2024 Mar 7. doi: 10.1152/advan.00019.2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEarly year's physiology education in medical curricula provides unique challenges. As well as inculcating concepts that are seen as difficult, modern curricula require that students learn in context in Case Based Learning courses. Additionally, regulating bodies stress that the soft skills of compassion, communication and empathy are embedded throughout curricula. This has driven work in our organisation involving drama and final year medicine students during which they collaborate in realistic simulations of doctor/patient interacti...

Diabetes and Obesity Pathophysiology as a Teaching Tool to Emphasize Physiology Core Concepts
Adv Physiol Educ. 2024 Mar 7. doi: 10.1152/advan.00119.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiabetes mellitus and obesity are major public health issues that significantly impact the health care system. The next generation of health-care providers will need a deep understanding of the pathophysiology of these diseases if we are to prevent, treat, and eventually cure these diseases and ease the burden on patients and the health care system. Physiology Core Concepts are a set of core principles, or "big ideas", identified by physiology educators that are thought to promote long-term retention, create a deeper understanding, a...
