This lecture series is a subset of those contained in SOM208, the comprehensive human pathology lecture and laboratory series taken by all second year medical students. Attendance of an Advanced Clinical Elective is excellent preparation for subsequent attendance of one of the clinical conferences, although it is not required. See the Molecular Pathology Program Coordinator for times of lectures.
