OCOM 8941 - Scholarly Work - Required Paper


Students are required to work with the primary preceptor on an assigned service between December of year three and December of year four to select and approve an appropriate patient case seen while on rotation as the basis for a paper. The selected patient case must lend itself to the production of a paper that includes the usual components of a case report; the case must have some noteworthy appeal that would be valuable to a particular audience. Once the audience has been identified, students must select a target journal as a potential venue for publication of the case report. It may be helpful to identify a few target publications and discuss these with the preceptor. The case report must then be written to conform to the submission guidelines and specifications of the target journal(s). An osteopathic component must be included in the manuscript submitted for grading.
