The six-week program will focus on such topics as genetics, viral diseases, biology and ethics, among others. UConn School of Medicine faculty will present the lectures, which are very similar to a medical school class, but presented in simpler terminology. The UConn School of Medicine mini-medical school concept was originally one of two such programs in the nation. Since then, it has become a model for many other medical schools around the country. Mini-Medical School will be held every Tuesday for six weeks, March 28 through May 2, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the medical school's Blue Auditorium lecture hall adjacent to the Academic Entrance lobby.
Early registration is recommended.
