How is biochemistry taught here at the 香蕉视频 of Utah School of Medicine? What is "Breaking Bread"? What is it that excites students about getting a free McDonald鈥檚 breakfast on a certain Fall morning? I interviewed Janet Lindsley, Ph.D and Associate Professor of Biochemistry at the UUSOM to discuss the importance of teaching from a physiological perspective and 鈥済etting students to visualize what鈥檚 happening in the body and at what times.鈥 Woven throughout the curriculum, students experience a wide variety of hands on lessons including a blood glucose lab morning that entices the hungry with a free McDonald鈥檚 breakfast, to a more formal tradition of Breaking Bread in Phase I with faculty leaders to share food and healing traditions.
