Our workshops

Preclinical & Clinical workshops

PACE: Practical Arrhythmology & Cardiac Electrophysiology

Trainer: Radu Vătășescu MD, PhD

Workshop description: Cardiac pacing has improved the quality of life, morbidity and mortality of patients with symptomatic bradyarrhythmias. By correcting pulse and conduction defects, pacemakers have been closing the gap between the artificial electrical stimulation needed in certain diseased hearts and the heart’s natural, normal electrical function. This workshop gives you the opportunity to delve deeper into (and grasp with your own hands!) the theoretical inner-workings of the cardiac electrical activity and practice fundamental interventional skills. You’ll learn through clinical cases, real devices and even through procedural demonstrations using a simulator.
Please note: this event is an advanced cardiology workshop; therefore, only students in their 4th, 5th or 6th year of medical school can participate.

PSI: Psychiatry Simulated Interview

Trainer: Călin Cavaropol MD

Workshop description: One of the best ways to learn is to ask questions, so at PSI you are in charge of taking history! Use your communication skills in order to deal with psychiatric patients and to find out the most relevant information about their conditions. This workshop gives you the chance to have a practical approach to psychiatric history, helping you to have a more accurate overview of the interaction with patients with a mental health condition. The workshop is structured in 4 scenarios. For each one, there will be a psychiatric patient with a certain disorder and a team made by 2 of you. At the beginning of every scenario, each team is going to receive some information about the patient and then you may start taking history. At the end of every scenario, you are going to receive feedback from the psychiatrist, in order to help you understand which additional questions you could have asked and more about the clinical experience with this type of patients. Keep in mind that it is very important to show empathy towards your patient and to have control over the patient interview!

First PQRSTeps in ECG

Trainer: Alex Tirlea MD

Workshop description: No matter what you do in life, one thing is sure: you will be rhymed by heartbeats: coming from your chest or… be it in your hands. And more than that, it is an electric feeling. Face to face with an ECG for the first time? We’ll make sure it’s love at first sight. You will be introduced to the heart’s ABC, or better yet, PQRST. The basics of the electrocardiogram are going to accompany you everywhere in your career no matter what you will choose as a future specialty, so start here!

FAST: Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma

Trainer: Alexandru Carâp MD, PhD

Workshop description: Life-threatening intra-abdominal injuries don’t always come with obvious warning signs. Imagine you are in front of a trauma patient. You do a quick physical examination – but you still cannot leave out the possibility that he may be massively bleeding into his peritoneum. What should you do next? The answer is FAST – a noninvasive and accurate ultrasound examination, which you’ll learn during our workshop by examining your peers. FAST provides vital information without delay and allows you to rapidly identify free fluid in the peritoneal, pericardial, or pleural spaces.

Please note: this workshop requires a specific body of knowledge; therefore, only students in their 4th, 5th or 6th year of medical school can participate.

Know your joints: Musculoskeletal Ultrasound

Trainer: Delia Cinteză MD, PhD

Workshop description: From professional athletes to laypersons, all patients with musculoskeletal complaints benefit from ultrasound imaging. It is a readily available and noninvasive test that is now part of any rigorous clinical examination. But as with all forms of imaging it needs to be handled with care and integrated into clinical reasoning – and this is exactly where our workshop comes in handy. At one of the most popular workshops last year, you will learn not only the principles behind ultrasound imaging, but also high-precision procedures, such as ultrasound guided intra-articular injections.

ICR: Introduction to Clinical Reasoning

Trainer: Alexandru Carâp MD, PhD

Workshop description: A correct clinical diagnosis is 2% perspiration and 98% experience. At first, it may seem impossible to make up the whole picture containing the entire history and symptoms of the patient. With time, skills and logical thinking your abilities to put the right diagnosis will heighten. The purpose of this workshop is to familiarize the participants with the basics of clinical reasoning practicing on a variety of clinical cases.

Please note: this workshop requires a basic background in taking history from patients; therefore, only students in their 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th year of medical school can participate.

Histopathology Insights: Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Trainer: Tiberiu Georgescu MD, PhD

Workshop description: Histopathology is the key step in diagnosing breast cancer. Thus, the biopsy establishes the type, the histological grade and the immunohistochemical expression of the receptors for estrogen, progesterone and the oncogene HER2. Why are we interested in looking for the presence of these factors? Because this is the way the treatment is then chosen. If none of the receptors for estrogen and progesterone or the HER2 gene are expressed, then the cancer is called triple-negative. That means it will respond neither to anti-hormonal treatment nor to HER2-targeted therapies, so the only option left is chemotherapy. Step into the histo-path lab to gain an insight into the specific diagnostic and prognostic particularities of this type of cancer!

Totally Cellular: Molecular Diagnostic Techniques

Trainer: Dragoș Florea MD, PhD

Workshop description:Are you a lab lover? Then this should sound interesting to you. Molecular diagnostics represents a collection of techniques used to analyze biological markers in the genome and proteome, and how the cells express their genes and proteins just as a signature that can be recognised as characteristic for a certain disease. This workshop gives you the chance to zoom in on the cells and to get an insight into the molecular diagnostic techniques used in microbiology.

PILL: Pharmaceuticals in the Limelight

Trainer: Erand Mati Pharm. D, PhD

Workshop description: A doctor’s purpose, no matter the specialty, is to treat the patient. Most frequently this is done using drugs. Ever wondered how these are made?

Dizzy Workshop: Investigating the Vestibular System

Trainer: Cristina Goanta MD

Workshop description: Get your head spinning with our Dizzy workshop – or better yet, learn how to stop it from spinning!

Dizziness is a common symptom in patients. The diagnosis and management of such patients can be challenging, but can also be achieved with appropriate clinical skills. This workshop will equip you to effectively diagnose and manage dizziness across a range of clinical settings, including emergency medicine, general and internal medicine and neurology. The workshop will cover the anatomical basis of dizziness and then teach you more about diagnosing and treating this condition through a series of hands-on maneuvers and investigations. These include investigating the vestibular apparatus, a test that analizes gravitational sense and perception of cardinal points, in normal conditions and after the subject has spinned and become lightheaded and even video nystagmography. As nystagmus (a condition in which the eyes make repetitive, uncontrolled movements) is frequently associated with dizziness and vertigo, video nystagmography aids diagnosis by measuring eye movement while the patient is wearing infrared video goggles and eye-tracking software.

If you want to become a better future doctor and play with gadgets, then let Dizzy take you for a spin!
