How Genes to Lodge Curriculum Influenced Edifice Pattern

The medical school's Genes to Society curriculum is based upon researchers' ever-expanding agreement of the human being genome. In an era where new genetic variations and their relationships to illness are existence discovered every twenty-four hours, the new curriculum moves medicine into a realm where each patient's disease becomes unique. Instead of studying "archetype" cases in medicine, students will now acquire how individual variation -- in biology, genetic inheritance, environmental factors and family life -- contributes to patients' health.

Johns Hopkins has launched this assuming vision of medical education in a state-of-the-art building specifically designed to back up it. As the campus'south first new medical education center in 25 years, the Anne and Mike Armstrong Medical Education Building offers innovative classrooms with projection capabilities and mobile podiums for instructors. There are large lecture halls, intimate learning studios and private study areas. The building as well features the latest digital communications technology, including virtual-reality simulations, MRI images, CT scans, surgical videos and other 21st-century reference tools.
