To thoroughly implement the digital transformation strategy of medical education, comprehensively improve medical students’ core professional competencies and digital morphological identification capabilities, and effectively advance the reform of basic medical teaching, the on-campus selection of the 5th National Digital Morphology Imaging Reading and Digital Anatomical Specimen Identification Skills Competition for Medical College Students was successfully held on April 12. Co-sponsored by the School of Basic Medical Sciences and the National Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center for Basic Medical Sciences, the competition attracted nearly 300 students from multiple schools, including the School of Anesthesiology, the First School of Clinical Medicine, the Second School of Clinical Medicine, the School of Medical Imaging, and the International Education College.
Adopting an online theoretical assessment format, the selection set up two groups: the undergraduate group and the international student group. It covered five disciplinary tracks: human anatomy, histology, pathology, medical parasitology and medical microbiology, comprehensively examining participants’ professional knowledge reserve, digital morphology recognition and practical application abilities. Centering on the core tenet of boosting teaching, facilitating learning and fostering talents through competitions, the competition closely focused on the key points of basic medical morphology teaching. It not only fully inspected the outcomes of daily teaching, but also provided a platform for innovating morphology teaching modes and strengthening the Three Basics and Three Strictness training for medical students. After rigorous assessment, a total of 113 outstanding students were selected to advance to the national final competition.
In the next step, the School and the Center will coordinate competition organization and special training, fully align with national competition standards, carry out targeted skill enhancement training, and make every effort to prepare for the national contest to strive for excellent results. The School of Basic Medical Sciences will continue to take competitions as an important starting point to promote the high-quality development of medical education and support the cultivation of high-caliber medical talents.
