Our project is translational research and
focuses on translation of information from the scientist to the
classroom. Now it takes about 5-6 years for scientific information to
work its way into the classroom.
If the scientific information was immediately put into PowerPoint,
instead of years, it would take days to translate.
The fundamental underlying concept of the
research center is that of telepreventive medicine. The birth of the
discipline started a few years ago and has mushroomed in interest in a
very short period of time. The British Medical Journal
article our group published recognized its importance.
In the health arena, telepreventive medicine will form the
backbone of our international health crossroads being build.
Telepreventive medicine has a great potential to improve global health.
Many important medical discoveries are not
readily shared with medical students, simply because it takes 5-10 years
for information to migrate into medical school textbooks. Through the
Supercourse, information can be shared more rapidly with medical
students through their instructors.
