What direction should genetic testing take in regard to patient care and research in the 21st century? Is your aching hand in need of an ergonomicfriendly office? How do you heal a baby's ailing heart?
These are among the many questions and medical topics that will be in the spotlight at the IU School of Medicine (IUSM) Mini Medical School Oct. 12-Nov. 16. Each Tuesday a two-hour session begins at 7 p.m. followed by a questionand-answer period.
You don't have to work in the health-care field to attend and appreciate the topics discussed at the Mini Medical School, which is sponsored by IUSM Faculty Community Relations Committee. One of the main goals of the school is to introduce and explain to the public‹in layman's language‹the latest issues and developments in health care and research. Classes will be in the University Place Conference Center on the IUPUI campus. Cost for all six sessions is $45, and includes parking, refreshments and a course certificate.
