This resource is targeted for Healthcare Administration, Health Sciences, and Pre-Professional students.11352022-02-19T17:59:03Z2024-01-22T14:52:30ZApplying the International Classification of Functioning, Disability & Health: A Team-Based/Project Based Course for Undergraduate Students<img alt="Read more about Applying the International Classification of Functioning, Disability & Health: A Team-Based/Project Based Course for Undergraduate Students" title="Applying the International Classification of Functioning, Disability & Health: A Team-Based/Project Based Course for Undergraduate Students cover image" class="cover " width="116" height="150" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzM5NCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--d79fcff238755e375ce2780bdf7394887fe8a1aa/thumbnail%20(4).jpg" />This text is a complete team-based and project-based learning course focused on the application of the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) to unique groups of program clients and patients. It is designed to engage undergraduate students in exploration of the different facets of the ICF, in how the ICF differs from medical and social models because of these facets, and how each applies to, and ensures, an awareness of all of the ways in which health affects and is affected by peoples’ characteristics and environments. The text includes readings, digital links, readiness assurance elements, and guidelines for individual and team deliverables, but can also be used as a stand-alone text to provide a rich constructivist approach to understanding the structure of the ICF and how to use it for problem solving and decision-making with a patient/client population. It is the author’s intention that the text be used as suits the instructor, and modified to fit the pre-professional or paraprofessional healthcare students being taught, so while case study examples for rehabilitation are include, the text will lend itself to any patient or client group.11332022-02-05T22:23:15Z2024-01-22T14:52:30ZVeterinary Preventive Medicine<img alt="Read more about Veterinary Preventive Medicine" title="Veterinary Preventive Medicine cover image" class="cover " width="683" height="1024" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzM2MywicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--c6769e073e9bc2d0fd97deed1f2dbc7ecfe60d9a/Preventative-Medicine-eBook-Cover-683x1024.png" />Goals of preventive medicine are to protect, promote, and maintain health and well-being and to prevent disease, disability, and death. Veterinary preventive medicine is an important component of veterinary training not only to ensure animal health but also to help veterinary students learn necessary information and skills for participation in global animal and human health challenges and disease prevention.11132022-02-02T18:48:41Z2024-01-22T19:12:44ZNeuroscience for Pre-Clinical Students<img alt="Read more about Neuroscience for Pre-Clinical Students" title="Neuroscience for Pre-Clinical Students cover image" class="cover " width="494" height="637" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzM1MSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--e85b110e38480e4d13453983353567e12c8b9c2f/Cover-Neuroscience%20(thumbnail)2.JPG" />Neuroscience for Pre-Clinical Students covers neuroenergetics, neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, and selected amino acid metabolism and degradation. This USMLE-aligned text is designed for a first-year undergraduate medical course and is meant to provide the essential biochemical information from these content areas in a concise format to enable students to engage in an active classroom. Hence, it does not cover neurophysiology and neuroanatomy; and clinical correlates and additional application of content are intended to be provided in the classroom experience. The text assumes that the students will have completed medical school prerequisites (including the MCAT) in which they will have been introduced to the most fundamental concepts of biology and chemistry that are essential to understand the content presented here. With its focus on high-yield concepts, this resource will assist the learner later in medical school and for exam preparation. The 49-page text was created specifically for use by pre-clinical students at Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine and was based on faculty experience and peer review to guide development and hone important topics. Instructors reviewing, adopting, or adapting parts or the whole of the text are requested to register their interest at: https://bit.ly/interest-preclinical. Instructors and subject matter experts interested in and sharing their original course materials relevant to pre-clinical education are requested to join the instructor portal at https://www.oercommons.org/groups/pre-clinical-resources/10133.9672021-11-22T15:01:28Z2024-01-22T19:12:16ZCell Biology, Genetics, and Biochemistry for Pre-Clinical Students<img alt="Read more about Cell Biology, Genetics, and Biochemistry for Pre-Clinical Students" title="Cell Biology, Genetics, and Biochemistry for Pre-Clinical Students cover image" class="cover " width="1314" height="1705" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzA1NiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--6f67120e5546b1f7495de3a998db3a13c38dabf9/Cover-VTSCOMbook2-small.JPG" />Cell Biology, Genetics, and Biochemistry for Pre-Clinical Students is an undergraduate medical-level resource for foundational knowledge across the disciplines of genetics, cell biology and biochemistry. This USMLE-aligned text is designed for a course in first-year undergraduate medical course that is delivered typically before students start to explore systems physiology and pathophysiology. The text is meant to provide the essential information from these content areas in a concise format that would allow learner preparation to engage in an active classroom. Clinical correlates and additional application of content is intended to be provided in the classroom experience. The text assumes that the students will have completed medical school prerequisites (including the MCAT) in which they will have been introduced to the most fundamental concepts of biology and chemistry that are essential to understand the content presented here. This resource should be assistive to the learner later in medical school and for exam preparation given the material is presented in a succinct manner, with a focus on high-yield concepts.

The series of the document has been critical for countries/organizations to develop and revise their food regulations/certifications. Thus, the new release will trigger revisions on food regulations/certifications. We translated ‘’General Principles of Food Hygiene’’ and added food regulations and GHP/HACCP examples from Taiwan to this book. Therefore, it could be a nice stepping stone to understand food regulations and the food industry in Taiwan.10752021-09-27T23:31:12Z2024-01-22T14:52:27ZPublic Health in Pharmacy Practice: A Casebook - 2nd Edition<img alt="Read more about Public Health in Pharmacy Practice: A Casebook - 2nd Edition" title="Public Health in Pharmacy Practice: A Casebook - 2nd Edition cover image" class="cover " width="129" height="170" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MjkwNCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--f0d36649b6b32977c61cff65efa03e3eaccad680/PublicHealth-Cover-Print-129x170.jpg" />This casebook, now in its second edition, is a collaboration of over 90 individuals with expertise and training in public health pharmacy. A total of 54 chapters are presented, covering a broad array of topics relevant to pharmacy applications of public health.
