mini-med school

Any outreach program developed by a medical school, which provides a 4–8 week classroom education on multiple topics of public interest, in particular, discoveries in health sciences, intended for interested lay persons. The mini-med school concept tries to put a human face on biomedical sciences, and at the same time provides good PR for the clinical and research community.
