  • MSBS in Medical Sciences College of Graduate Studies Health Science Campus University of Toledo
    MSBS in Medical Sciences College of Graduate Studies Health Science Campus University of Toledo MSBS in Medical Sciences (MSBS-MS) is a one-year program designed to train students in foundational medical sciences. The 2017-2018 academic year represents a complete redesign of the former MSBS-MS program with renewed emphasis on the core-teachings of pathophysiology of disease. The program has been conceived with three primary objectives: 1. Provide clinically relevant, medical and graduate-level education to students who wish to boost their academic standing, towards a long-term goal of pursuing a career in medicine. 2. Create strong foundations for improved performance in any MD/DO-curriculum, and USMLE step 1 and step 2 exams. 3. Provide basic and clinical research opportunities to broaden student perspective and strengthen their overall portfolio. This advanced-foundational graduate program provides a unique opportunity for the graduate students to train along-side medical students (9 credits, multiple modules) and gain meaningful clinical and/or basic science research experience. The newly redesigned course also emphasizes an organ-systems based approach where clinical and graduate faculty train students in the pathophysiology of disease. This is a graduate-level course that incorporates materials taught to medical students during their first and second years, and provides foundational information for the MD curriculum. Also, pathophysiology of disease is a significant portion of the USMLE exams and its inclusion in our new MSBS-MS curriculum has the potential to increase our student-scores in step 1 and step 2. UT’s large basic and clinical-science faculty will guide students through their year-round assignment on clinical or basic research.

  • BS in Biomedical Sciences and Pharmd
    B.S./PHARM.D. BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES/DOCTOR OF PHARMACY This program intends for students to complete a B.S. in Biomedical Sciences (College of Arts and Sciences) and a Doctor of Pharmacy (USF Health College of Pharmacy) over the span of seven (7) years. Students completing this program will be well trained to perform as skilled intermediaries to effectively communicate with patients, their health providers, insurance companies, and pharmaceutical companies. Completion of this program requires students to complete the first year (36 credits) of the Pharm.D. during their senior year of their B.S. in Biomedical Sciences. This accelerated program shares 13 credits between already existing degrees/concentrations: • B.S. in Biomedical Sciences • Pharm.D. in Pharmacy Target Students and Expected Outcomes The accelerated Bachelor’s to Pharm.D. program is a collaborative effort between the College of Arts and Sciences, the Honors College, and USF Health’s College of Pharmacy (USF COP). This program is an attractive and viable career path for students in the Department of Chemistry’s degree program that results in professional training in pharmacy. Students who complete this program receive the necessary training to become advanced pharmacist clinicians that will collaborate with other health professionals. Description and Requirements For admission to the program a student must: • be admitted to the Honors College as a first year student (at least a 1300 CR+M SAT or 29 ACT and 3.8 H.S. GPA as calculated by USF); • hold US citizenship or permanent resident status. UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE B.S. IN BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES (BMS) All BMS students will complete FLENT and Summer Enrollment requirements as well as graduation requirements listed in the catalog.

  • Under-Represented Students in Health Care Health Professional Schools Seek Students from Racial/Ethnic Groups That Are Currently Under- Represented in the Profession
    Dec. 29 2016 Under-represented Students in Health Care Health professional schools seek students from racial/ethnic groups that are currently under- represented in the profession. Minority groups considered to have inadequate representation in the health care profession include: African Americans, American Indians, Mexican Americans, Mainland Puerto Ricans, individuals from low-income families, and first generation college students. Many professional schools offer programs to encourage and prepare minority students for study in health care. To be considered for special admissions and enrichment programs, a student should indicate minority status on their application. Socioeconomically or financially disadvantaged advisees may receive tuition assistance for exam preparation courses. Advisees must also request fee reduction or assistance from application service administrators.

  • Awareness, Attitudes and Perspectives of Direct-To-Consumer Genetic Testing in Greece: a Survey of Potential Consumers
    Journal of Human Genetics (2015) 60, 515–523 & 2015 The Japan Society of Human Genetics All rights reserved 1434-5161/15 www.nature.com/jhg ORIGINAL ARTICLE Awareness, attitudes and perspectives of direct-to-consumer genetic testing in Greece: a survey of potential consumers Vasiliki Mavroidopoulou1, Ellie Xera1 and Vasiliki Mollaki1,2 Direct-to-consumer genetic testing (DTCGT) is now offered by numerous companies. The present survey aimed to explore awareness, interest, reasons to take and refuse DTCGT, and understanding of results amongst 725 higher education students in Greece. A third of the responders were aware of DTCGT and interest was dependent on cost. More than 60% of the participants would undergo DTCGT to learn more about their health, to warn their children, so that their doctor can monitor their health and change their lifestyle. Nevertheless, they would prefer to consult their doctor first and expressed concerned about their personal data. After receiving results from a hypothetical DTC genetic test predicting higher risk for colon cancer, 59.5% of the responders thought that they could understand the results but 46.1% believed that the results have diagnostic value. In total, 83.6% of the participants would ask their doctor to explain the results and 70.4% would discuss results with their family. In conclusion, the majority of higher education students in Greece appreciate the benefits of genetic testing but with the involvement of their doctor. A physician’s participation in the process and informing the public about the true value of genetic testing, are crucial to avoid misinterpretation of DTCGT results.

We were able to pay and retain all of our employees, thanks to the generosity of our directors. • And, amazingly, we were able to increase our fundraising by 2%, in this very tough year, to $25.9 million provided by 21,000 donors. • The above enabled us to fund 59 research grants totaling $16.5 million. We have, since inception, financed 525 grants, representing $125 million in cumulative funding through March 2021. • We have one therapy well on its way through clinical trials, and another expected to enter clinical trials in late 2021 or 2022. Our Scientists Approximately 175 scientists affiliated with 75 institutions around the world are working on our projects. They are profiled in the pages that follow. Many labs faced funding challenges during COVID-19, and our consistent support was very beneficial for ensuring that vital staff could be retained and scientific progress was preserved.
