CBB Closure

Cancer: Bench to Bedside. In sum, it wasn't as satisfying a block as I had hoped for. In a way, I can understand why. It's sort of a hodgepodge block unified by the theme of cancer. We covered molecular and cellular biology, epidemiology and evidence based medicine, biostatistics, a few cancers, and hematology. A weird mix, and looking at it, I feel like maybe they did do a decent job. It's a catchup catch-all block, and it did feel like we were jumping around a bit. I think the most solid learning I did was in hematology, but certainly reviewing basic science and epi principles was reinforcing and helpful.
