This course serves as a bridge between the basic and clinical sciences by teaching students the knowledge and skills necessary to develop into excellent diagnosticians. The course focuses on the following skills: the ability to interview complex patients, interpret history and physical examination findings, integrate basic laboratory and radiographic data, formulate a differential diagnosis and document findings.

As part of the second-year organ system-based curriculum, this team- taught course covers the normal physiology and histology of the endocrine and reproductive systems, the pathophysiology of diseases and disorders of these systems, and the medical and pharmacologic approaches to diagnosis and treatment. This course also covers the normal physiologic and developmental processes that accompany the transition from fetus (intrauterine) to newborn (extrauterine).
