Sex and Gender-Based Medicine Curriculum

The goal of this project integrated SGBM Curriculum is to establish Patient Case Learning Modules and didactic lecture materials that both encourage the learner and increase their awareness of the role sex and gender in every aspect of medicine. The modules will focus on areas of medicine that have established sex and gender differences and will be used in a longitudinal curriculum spanning Pre-clinical as well as Clinical years. The SGBM module and didactic material will not replace existing curricula or reinvent already well-taught sex and gender neutral topics.
Beginning with the Sakai nested system of resources and layered with interactive CBL TRIAD cases, the SGBM Curricular Model is readily adaptable to national medical schools. In addition the model’s unique design allows for expansion to an interprofessional team and case approach.
