In short, these systems-based curricula aim to present "normal" function in direct contrast with "abnormal" to provide an immediate clinical context. However, even in these integrated curricula, gross anatomy is typically taught as an independent course at the beginning of the program, sometimes with reinforcement later in the context of each organ system. By contrast, in designing the YourMD curriculum for the OHSU UME program, we elected to integrate the majority of the anatomical sciences content into each systems-based block to emphasize its functional and clinical application. As an innovative approach to anatomy education, it was especially important to implement a process for data-informed continuous quality improvement of the educational experience and learning outcomes. This presentation demonstrates application of the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle as a framework, targeting three aspects of the learning experience ? sequencing of content, spacing of sessions, and assessments for the Skin, Bone, and Muscle Block of the YourMD curriculum. 000009568 540__ $$fCC BY 000009568 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000009568 650__ $$aAnatomy$$014673 000009568 650__ $$aStudents, Medical$$026492 000009568 650__ $$aEducation, Medical$$018223 000009568 650__ $$aTeaching$$026786 000009568 650__ $$aCurriculum$$017249 000009568 650__ $$aQuality Improvement$$039456 000009568 6531_ $$acurriculum development 000009568 6531_ $$apedagogy 000009568 691__ $$aSchool of Dentistry$$041368 000009568 692__ $$aDepartment of Integrative Biomedical and Diagnostic Sciences$$041418 000009568 7001_ $$aNelsen, Sylvia$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009568 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2022 000009568 8564_ $$9851361a7-a7d1-4666-8f71-7cb61482c4a9$$s162889$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/9568/files/Nelsen-Sylvia-OHSU-ResearchWeek-2022.pdf 000009568 905__ $$a/rest/prod/0p/09/67/64/0p096764n 000009568 980__ $$aResearch Week
