ORBL 7090 Pharmacology and Therapeutics Clinical Skills Program This course is taken through Undergraduate Medical Education during the Residents first year in the program from May to September Clinical Skills encompasses two areas that are important for the education of physicians: Interviewing/Communication Skills and Physical Examination. As much as possible, the Clinical Skills component of the curriculum has been scheduled to reflect what is being taught in the cognitive component. This course is presented in Med I and II and is designed to assist students to develop skills in patient interviewing including information sharing (process and content), and physical examination (knowledge and techniques). Clinical Skills will also assist students to become competent, caring, ethical physicians with the ability to think critically, and to be accountable to their patients and society. Throughout the course, emphasis is placed on the patient-centred approach while bearing in mind medical ethics, cross-cultural sensitivity, and an awareness of patient diversity. Surgical Foundations Program This course is taken through PostGraduate Medical Education. Surgical Foundations is that initial period of postgraduate training required to acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes underlying S:\ddss\S Iwankow\OMS\Manual - Residents\Course Outlines - summary.docx April 2015 Page 1 of 6

It also includes training in advanced oral and maxillofacial surgery. An elective rotation may also be arranged. Year III of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Program consists of almost entirely of rotations to other departments and services and objectives are set out for each rotation. The general goals of this period of twelve months are to teach and expose the oral and maxillofacial resident to a wider variety of medical and surgical problems, learn a variety of technical skills which are part of the normal routine of certain specialties, but should be learned by oral and maxillofacial surgeons who may need to use them occasionally; To better appreciate the total care of the patient in particular, how particular diseases or conditions may affect the oral and maxillofacial surgeons management of a particular patient. These rotations also provide an excellent opportunity for the oral and maxillofacial resident to work alongside other residents studying in medical specialties and highly skilled support personnel. From these contacts, they not only learn, but have the opportunity to act as ambassadors for their specialty. DDSS 7290 Clinical Advanced Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Seminar IV The fourth year of the hospital residency training program is devoted to advanced oral and maxillofacial surgery.

CHSC 6810 Biostatics for Clinicians This course is designed for health professionals. When you have completed the course, you will be able to read, understand and evaluate quantitative work in the fields of clinical and population health. Rather than focusing on the mathematics, we focus on the development of statistical judgment. We introduce a broad range of material, but focus on when and why the technique might be used rather than how to conduct the analysis. We do not assume a background in statistics. That said, understanding statistics requires some ability to calculate and you can expect your assignments to ask you to do so. Learning Objectives Getting familiar with basic statistical concepts (population versus sample, causality, p-values, confidence intervals) Getting familiar with the most frequently encountered statistical techniques (descriptive statistics, tests, measures of association, sample size calculation, regression and survival analysis) Being able to correctly interpret statistics results reported in the bio-medical literature To aid residents in developing information retrieval and problem-solving skills useful in evaluating the scientific literature and in making clinical decisions. To give residents experience in planning and undertaking research and the reporting of the results of research in a form suitable for publication. ORBL 7090 Pharmacology and Therapeutics A combined lecture and seminar course on the pharmacological basis of therapeutics. Special attention will be paid to drugs used commonly in the practice of dentistry, their side effects and their interaction.
