This course will discuss medical issues (e.g., vaccination, water fluoridation, diseases outbreak, etc.) related to the contemporary society and deliberate possible solutions on how to advance the communication of scientific discoveries to the lay population. In addition, students will learn ways to organize a point-of-view or position manuscript. All lectures will be delivered in an interactive discussion forum where students are strongly encouraged to participate and share their perspectives on the respective themes as much as possible.
