the program, students will identify research opportunities for their summer research
project. They will present their work during the second year at the “Western Student
and Resident Medical Research Forum” in Carmel, California, or at the “Student
Technology and Research Symposium” in Lebanon, Oregon. In their third and fourth
year, participating students will choose at least one clinical research rotation as an
elective.
Over the next two to three years, we anticipate adding Longitudinal Tracks Programs
in the following areas:
•Health Care Leadership
•The H-art of Medicine
•Medical Technology and Innovation
•Academic Medicine

and discharge planning teams to improve care for
patients as they transition from discharge to doorstep
to daily life. Working as patient advocates, Rural Health
Track students work closely with health care
professionals across the care continuum to improve
patient outcomes with the goal of reducing 30-day
admission rates for patients triaged as high-risk for
readmission due to socio-economic issues and barriers in
the rural setting.
Applied Anatomy Track: The Applied Anatomy Track focuses on
educating students about the various facets of procedures-based medicine
and proper techniques common to interventional medical practice through
clinical skills workshops. The track equips students with a sound understanding
of the expectations of rotations and residency. Diagnostic imaging is integrated
as an adjunct to clinical procedures. The clinical skills workshop teaches students
a set of clinical skills often unique to a specific discipline but valuable to the
education of all specialties.
Biomedical and Clinical Research Track: The Biomedical and Clinical Research
Track gives students an early opportunity to participate in laboratory, clinical or OMM
research projects, exposing them to the research process. In the first few months of
