Courses

Clinical reasoning, symptom-based cases, and simulation practice in DxRHarmony.ai.

See 2027 camps

A curriculum you can finish, not a tour

The courses are self-paced and online. They are modeled on the clinical-reasoning work of a first year of medical school, taught at a pace for middle school and high school students. Early pre-health students use the same cases.

You do not need to already know that you want to be a doctor. Some students find that out here. The certificate at the end records the work you finished. It is not an application strategy.

Who it is for

  • Middle school students who want a real look at how clinicians think
  • High school students, including students in AP science
  • Students who discover an interest in medicine during a course or a camp
  • Early pre-health students in medicine, nursing, or physician assistant study who want the foundation, not a slogan

Tier 1

Foundation

How to organize a clinical problem, and how to interview. Every package starts here.

  • DxR 001A teaches the SOAP note: Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan.
  • DxR 001B is practice asking questions in a clinical interview.
  • An optional introduction to AI prompting is included with every package. It is about how these tools show up in healthcare education, not a shortcut to an answer.

DxR 001A

Intro to Clinical Reasoning A

The logic behind a diagnosis, taught through the SOAP note. SOAP is how clinicians write what the patient says, what was observed, what they think is going on, and what they would do next.

  • Subjective: the patient's words, symptoms, and history
  • Objective: vitals, exam findings, and tests
  • Assessment: a working explanation, not a guess you have to protect
  • Plan: the next test, treatment, or follow-up

DxR 001B

Intro to Clinical Reasoning B

Practice asking the questions that actually move a case. The interview is where students learn to pull a useful clue out of a patient's answer.

  • What to ask when a symptom is still vague
  • How to follow a clue without jumping to a label
  • How the interview becomes the Subjective part of a SOAP note

Tier 2

Pathophysiology and symptom patterns

Five courses, each built around a symptom clinicians meet again and again. Explorer includes one of them. Specialist and Practitioner include all five.

  • How a symptom can reflect disease in more than one body system
  • How a mechanism produces what the patient feels
  • Diagnostic patterns and clinical red flags
  • Application through AI-based virtual scenarios inside the courses

DxR 101

Headaches

How clinicians approach headache: what the pattern suggests, which features change the concern, and how the story is organized.

DxR 102

Abdominal Pain

Digestive physiology through cases, and how a belly pain can point at more than one problem. This is the Tier 2 course included in the Explorer package.

  • How common symptoms reflect organ function
  • Conditions the course uses as examples, including gastroenteritis and biliary colic
  • Location and timing, and why both change the next question

DxR 103

Chest Pain

Heart and lung problems that can present as chest pain, and the patterns that keep a clinician from stopping at the first idea.

DxR 104

Fever

Fever as the body's response to infection and to illness that is not an infection. Students learn what the rest of the story has to explain.

DxR 105

Shortness of Breath

Breathing trouble with more than one possible source, including the lungs and the heart, and the findings that separate them.

Tier 3

Simulation practice

After the courses, students in the Specialist and Practitioner packages practice with virtual patients. The product name is DxRHarmony.ai.

  • You choose one track in DxRHarmony.ai. Specialist access is limited. Practitioner access to that track is unrestricted.
  • The work is an interview, the findings you choose to review, and a decision you can explain.

Packages

Explorer, Specialist, and Practitioner are the three packages. Prices are not listed here. The pages this site replaces did not publish a price for these packages. Ask, and we will tell you the current cost.
