Dilemmas in Clinical Medicine

DCM is the required 3rd yr ethics course at the UB School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. It is a "course within a course" folding clinical ethics into each of the 6 clerkhips of the 3rd yr. Students are required to select and write up one case from each clerkship. The cases are then discussed during a small group discussion.

Course information is found in the Frequently Asked Questions sheet, including a Case Protocol. A sample case write-up is also available, as is a listing of relevant MEDLINE MeSH headings. Previous FAQ sheets and other course material are found in the course archive.

Address questions about the course to: Dr. Jack Freer, jfreer@buffalo.edu
