    Abstract:
    This is the summary of my talk about the new concept of education for medical technologists. In Osaka University, the course for laboratory medicine changed from a 3-year to a 4-year training course, and our faculty started a new curriculum of special practice in clinical medicine and biotechnology for first-year undergraduate students from 1997. This special practice in clinical medicine consists of three parts, encompassing learning in the essential divisions of the hospital, bedside learning, and presentation in case conferences. Students visit from time to time to seven divisions, outpatients' clinic, surgical operation room, laboratory for radiological examination, rehabilitation rooms, pharmacy, central storage room for medical records, and the department of medical informatics. The aim of this round practice is to broaden their review of clinical medicine. They also go to the bed side of one patient in the ward for 4 weeks especially for learning about values of laboratory data. They follow up the laboratory data and go with the patient to clinical physiological examinations. Finally, they present their case to all their teachers and class mates in a semi-congress style and are evaluated with scores by the staffs.
