Mini Medical School, where the public gets a chance to learn first-hand from top medical faculty professors, is back and open for registrations.

The University of Ottawa’s faculty of medicine offers the six-week course designed to teach the public about basics of medicine. The course steps back from the everyday crises of health problems to teach a more basic understanding of health topics.

This fall’s course is about health issues across the age spectrum, with a focus on prevention, and includes: common childhood infections, obesity in childhood, mental health challenges in teenagers, how to negotiate the health system in Eastern Ontario, challenges of a normal pregnancy, diabetes, preventing falls among the elderly, and dementia.

Sessions are held at The Ottawa Hospital’s Civic Campus in the Norman Patterson Auditorium. Each evening has two presentations.

The course begins Sept. 24 and runs through Oct. 29. Registration is at minimed.uottawa.ca.

It runs mostly on Thursdays (with one Tuesday) from 7 to 9 p.m. There’s a break halfway through.

Those who can’t get in can try again for the spring session beginning March 31.
