| 10/2014 - Present | Global Health Elective | The University of Texas Health Science Center | 40 students |
| Preparing for Global Health work. A 2 hour interactive session for students in the global health elective. The students work in groups to discuss preparations for travel including unique vaccinations, malaria prevention, and other health topics. | |||
| 9/2014 - Present | Clinical Skills | The University of Texas Health Science Center | 3 students |
| Longitudinal preceptorship. Students spend a half day with me in infectious diseases clinic. Through a combination of seeing patients on their own, presentations and written H&Ps, shadowing, and frequent discussions, they learn history and physical skills as well as get an introduction to medical decision making, systems issues, and many other topics. I strive to make this a hands-on experience for the students, encouraging them to spend as much time as possible seeing patients on their own. In addition I help the students begin to think about specialty choices and career plans after medical school. | |||
| 5/2014 - Present | Renal & Male Reproductive | The University of Texas Health Science Center | 215 students |
| A 1-hour lecture on evaluation and treatment of patients with urinary tract infections. Students are to review the syllabus material ahead of the session. During the session, I present clinical cases which students respond to using the audience response system. We then review each case and discuss the important principles, including antibiotic selection, duration of antibiotic therapy, appropriate lab testing, and evaluation of patients with recurrent UTIs. | |||
| 1/2014 - Present | Preparing for Global Health Work | The University of Texas Health Science Center | 20 students |
| I present interactive cases to the medical students to introduce them to travel medicine: vaccines, malaria prevention, and other measures to prepare for international travel. | |||
| 1/2014 - Present | Clinical Infectious Disease | The University of Texas Health Science Center | 10 students |
| Infectious Diseases Board Review for the infectious diseases fellows. 4 1-hour sessions per year. Using topics identified on the in-training exam, I write questions that simulate the infectious diseases board exam, and present them to the fellows. We discuss relevant content and test-taking strategies. | |||

| I give 2 lectures, each 1 hour, for this module. In Approach to the Patient with Fever or Suspected Infection, students are introduced to the process of synthesizing history, exam findings, and diagnostic testing to investigate febrile patients. In Laboratory Evaluation of Infectious Diseases; Principles of Antimicrobial Therapy, I introduce the concepts behind lab testing and antibiotic use. Both lectures focus on clinical medicine, but incorporate pathophysiology and basic science. I also lead a team-based learning activity covering management of fever and suspected infection, lasting 2 hours, along with Dr. Jason Bowling. In this activity, students work in groups and focus on the medical decision making process while evaluating cases of patients with fever and hyperthermia. | |||
