To mimic the experiences clinicians have with patients, longitudinally integrated team-based learning application exercises involving a group of patients who reappear across multiple courses in an integrated organ system-based curriculum were created to illustrate the multisystem nature of pathology. The aim of these cases was to provide student-centered learning opportunities that demonstrate how organ systems are interconnected in injury and disease and illustrate how a longitudinally integrated series of team-based learning activities can be woven throughout the preclinical curriculum.
