This course will be offered to third and fourth year medical students to enhance their communication skills as it pertains to explaining complex medical conditions, treatments, and paradigms to non-medically trained individuals. Students will also learn how to condense information from secondary source guides into best practice guides using systematic reviews, literature reviews, and foundation papers to up date Wiki-articles.
