Preclinical Dentistry

Preclinical Dentistry is a mandatory course for dental students that provides the theoretical foundation and practical skills essential for clinical practice in dentistry. The course focuses on the anatomy and morphology of teeth, diagnosis and treatment planning, as well as mastering basic manual techniques such as tooth tissue preparation, restorative materials, and fundamental prosthodontic procedures. Training is conducted in a simulated environment, allowing students to practice on phantom models before interacting with real patients. The goal of the course is to prepare students to handle clinical situations safely and effectively in the subsequent stages of their studies.

Lectures in Nephrology

As part of nephrology education, medical students acquire theoretical and practical knowledge of kidney anatomy and physiology, diagnostic methods such as urine and blood tests, and the latest therapeutic approaches for kidney diseases. The study also includes monitoring and managing patients with kidney problems.

Psychology in Medicine

Psychology is becoming increasingly important in people's lives. It is significant to research human behaviour and how people interact with their environment, as well as how they develop physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. A rising number of people have been both physically and mentally harmed in recent years as a result of cognitive, emotional, or behavioural disorders. It was determined that a study book on psychology for medical students was required.

Theoretical foundations of practical exercises in human physiology

The texts are primarily intended as a theoretical basis for practical exercises in physiology. They do not replace a classical textbook of physiology and mastering the knowledge summarized in them is not sufficient to pass the final exam. However, they can also serve as a first reading before attending a lecture on the topic. They will help in orienting you to the subject, summarizing the basic knowledge, including key words and terms you need to know on the topic. These texts are based on many years of experience of the teachers of the Institute of Physiology of the Faculty of Medicine of Masaryk University with what most often causes problems for students in practical exercises (and possibly in the practical exam).

Data-driven decision-making in medical education and healthcare

At a time when we are surrounded by the everyday use of communication and information technologies very closely linked to the Internet, it is challenging to discern the accuracy, truthfulness and objectivity of the information presented and published. This book and its chapters aim to provide an overview of selected projects and activities across the academic and governmental domains focused on data processing and visualisation. It is crucial to recognise that, given the volume of data of varying quality that we now have at our disposal, we need to focus much more on understanding, identifying, and distributing correct information and inferences directly from the data. This is the main reason why this book was written. The individual case studies focus on examples of both good and bad practices, drawing on experiences from real-life projects. Data should always serve as a basis for decision-making processes and mechanisms, but only if they are correctly processed, understood, and,...

NewMed: New Era in Medical Education

During the spring of 2020, due to the advancing pandemic of COVID-19, there was a need to move teaching to the online environment in a short time. This need has affected all universities in Europe, but the position of medical faculties is specific in the fact that a large part of teaching takes place in the form of practical exercises and clinical practice, as well as in the fact that senior students were heavily involved in volunteering, which placed great demands on their time possibilities, which are limited even in normal times due to the complexity of the study.

New methods of primary prevention of dental caries in children

The study material “New methods in primary prevention of dental caries in children” is based on the need to present updated literature on primary prevention of dental caries in children, which reflects current trends and the latest findings of basic, applied and clinical research in the field of etiopathogenesis and prevention of dental caries. Due to the intensive scientific work of our team in this field, supported by a number of Czech and international publications, we have implemented results from molecular genetics and microbiology or behavioral intervention into the scripts. We point out the necessity of interdisciplinary cooperation and the benefits and interconnection of theoretical and clinical disciplines at medical and science faculties, not only in the framework of oral health research.

The theoretical parts are completed by clinical columns. The fourth chapter contains the review questions that may help students verify their knowledge. Although the textbook contains schemas, photographs of formalin-fixed cadaveric specimens and modified figures from public domain, Henry Gray 'Anatomy of the Human Body' (Philadelphia: Lea & Febiger, 1918), it is necessary to use the anatomical atlas, too (Sobotta's,...
