Assignments:

1.  BUGS Cases - Complete these exercises during the suggested time frame in the schedule above.  Cases that are underlined have unique material that is covered on exams.  None of the cases for virology are assigned.  Note that we take note of material that is reinforced in the BUGS and lecture.

2.  Current Topics in Microbiology (CTIM) -
       
CTIM Group Assignments (pdf)
       CTIM Materials:
            CTIM 1 - Avian flu (Sept. 18, 11:00)
            CTIM 2 - Prions as Infectious Agents (Oct. 2, 11:00)
            CTIM 3 - Smallpox vaccine (Oct. 6, 11:00)

3Virtual Microbiology Lab - Due Oct. 30, 5:00 p.m. - Key - We lost our wet lab years ago.  The Virtual Microbiology Lab enables you to go through exactly the same decision making process, data evaluation, and diagnostics as our former wet lab.  You will need to know this information for our exams and exams administered by "other people".  You must complete the lab by the deadline - part of the physician scholar competency evaluation.  Work in groups if you want, submit individually.

3.  Clinical Microbiology Conferences (CMC) - You have been assigned groups.  Look over the Pre-CMC material, read the appropriate material from Infectious Disease in 30 Days, and submit the Pre-CMC Warmup by the assigned day (see schedule above).  Your faculty leader may assign students to present cases or answer specific questions.  This material is covered on our exams in the form of essay questions.
     Introduction
     CMC Group Assignments
     CMC Materials: 
            CMC 1 - Pneumonias (Oct. 29, 1:00); Pre-CMC Warmup due Oct. 28, 5:00
            CMC 2 - Endocarditis (Nov. 5, 1:00); Pre-CMC Warmup due Nov. 3, 5:00
            CMC 3 - CNS Infections (Nov. 10, 1:00); Pre-CMC Warmup due Nov. 5, 5:00
            CMC 4 - GI Infections (Nov. 13, 1:00); Pre-CMC Warmup due Nov. 12, 5:00
            CMC 5 - GU Infections (Nov. 19, 1:00); Pre-CMC Warmup due Nov. 19, 5:00
