PROFESSIONAL ONCOLOGY EDUCATION PROGRAM

密歇根州立大学人类医学院和护理学院 大学提出专业肿瘤学教育计划。 这个程序 将确保医学和护理学生：1）有效地教授 肿瘤学的基本知识; 2）获得背景和技能， 合理提供癌症预防服务， （3）认识到系统的重要性。 癌症患者的临床研究;以及4）提供机会， 与癌症预防、检测和诊断相关的经验，以及 病人护理 该项目将加强肿瘤学基础教学。 它 将提高癌症教学的连贯性和平衡性， 病理学课程，并将研究所多学科的情况下为中心的 关于特定癌症的教学课程。 它还将构建一个循环， 检讨及改善两间学院与癌症有关的课程。 该计划还将启动一些以预防为重点的活动 和癌症的早期检测。 其中包括自愿 以经验为中心的医疗和护理癌症预防计划 学生，癌症预防的流行病学基础的系统教学 和检测程序，行为知识和技能的指导， 与癌症预防直接相关， 营养，分析癌症预防中有争议的领域 和筛选，并系统地评估学生的能力， 评估病人患重大癌症的风险。 另一组活动将侧重于系统的临床研究， 癌症患者。 这些措施包括有组织地讨论 招募癌症患者参与实验方案;促进 学生研究与癌症登记数据;并提供一个简短的年度 最近的癌症研究。 最后，一系列癌症相关主题的扩展研究机会 将提供临床助理，学生将 参加了一系列新修订的肿瘤学选修课。 这些活动将提高医生和护士的能力 从密歇根州立大学毕业，尤其是初级保健 提供者，通过更熟练的护理减少癌症的影响， 通过预防和检测的努力。

The College of Human Medicine and the College of Nursing of Michigan State University propose a Professional Oncology Education Program. This program will assure that medical and nursing students: 1) are effectively taught the essentials of oncology; 2) acquire the background and skills to enable them to rationally provide services in cancer prevention and early detection; 3) are brought to appreciate the importance of systematic clinical studies for cancer patients; and 4) are provided opportunities for experiences relevant to cancer prevention, detection and diagnosis, and patient care. The proposed program will strentheng the basic teaching of oncology. It will improve the coherence and balance of teaching about cancer in pathology courses and will institute multi-disciplinary case-centered teaching sessions on selected cancers. It will also structure a cycle of review and improvement of the cancer-related curriculum of both colleges. The program will also initiate a number of activities focused on prevention and early detection of cancers. These include a voluntary experience-centered Cancer Prevention program for medical and nursing students, systematic teaching of epidemiological basis of cancer prevention and detection programs, instruction in behavioral knowledge and skills directly relevant to cancer prevention, teaching of relevant topics in nutrition, presentations analyzing controversial areas in cancer prevention and screening, and systematic assessment of students' competence in assessing patients' risks for significant cancers. Another set of activities will be focused on systematic clinical studies of cancer patients. These include structured discussion of issues in recruiting cancer patients to experimental protocols; facilitation of student studies with cancer registry data; and offering an annual short course on recent cancer research. Finally, a set of opportunities for extended study of cancer-related topics will be made available in Clinical Assistantships, and students will be recruited to a set of newly revised oncology electives. These activities will enhance the ability of physicians and nurses graduating from Michigan State University, especially primary care providers, to reduce the impact of cancer through more skilled care and through efforts in prevention and detection.
