Each student must submit an article with graphic support PowerPoint or Keynote format for 10-15 minutes. Then the rest of the students and professors can make questions for 5 minutes. Items will be distributed among the students in alphabetical order and the presentations and subsequent discussion should be in English.
At the end of each topic, there will be a clinic session during which the students will present clinical cases related to the subject. The last 30 minutes of this session will be devoted to the evaluation of the knowledge acquired.
All students must read and internalize all items to be discussed during the sessions.
