Abstract

Systems medicine and systems biology have inherent educational challenges. These have largely been addressed either by providing new masters programs or by redesigning undergraduate programs. In contrast, short courses can respond to a different need: they can provide condensed updates for professionals across academia, the clinic, and industry. These courses have received less attention. Here, we share our experiences in developing and providing such courses to current and future leaders in systems biology and systems medicine. We present guidelines for how to reproduce our courses, and we offer suggestions for how to select students who will nurture an interdisciplinary learning environment and thrive there.

摘要

系统医学和系统生物学具有内在的教育挑战。这些问题主要通过提供新的硕士课程或重新设计本科课程来解决。相比之下，短期课程可以满足不同的需求：它们可以为学术界、临床和工业界的专业人士提供浓缩的最新知识更新。这些课程受到的关注较少。在这里，我们分享了在开发和提供此类课程方面的经验，这些课程面向系统生物学和系统医学领域的当前和未来的领导者。我们提出了如何复制我们的课程的指导方针，并为如何选择将培养跨学科学习环境并在其中茁壮成长的学生提供了建议。
