Telehealth: Dermatology Assessment
Dermatological assessments require precise focus, lighting, and clear demarcation of affected areas, but how can you achieve these results via telehealth? What tools are available to remote patients for taking high quality images, and how can you as a healthcare provider leverage everyday items to improve patient care outcomes? From photography basics to using specialized clinical photography equipment, we cover the essentials for providing high quality remote care to patients with dermatological concerns. This course walks you through the process of obtaining clinically useful imagery after the reporting of a dermatological complaint. We’ll model advice you can give to patients or caregivers, tips for working with everyday technology to take clinically useful images, and common pitfalls in teledermatology. To bring it all together, we’ll also provide advice on how to leverage more specialized devices, like portable dermatoscopes, to provide high-resolution images that can more accurately identify skin conditions and patient status. This course doesn’t assume any previous experience with telehealth or specific technologies but will rely on your previous experience with physical assessments. Whether you are extremely adept at performing telehealth visits or a novice, this course contains practices and expert guidance to positively benefit your practice.

Preclinical Safety
Patient safety is of paramount importance for any drug discovery program. This course looks at some of the lessons learned which have influenced how promising molecules are currently evaluated for safety risks. In vitro and in vivo toxicology and safety studies are discussed, why they are performed, and how the data they provide guide a safety risk assessment, including determining a therapeutic index or safety window for a drug. Finally, the course will look at how safety data guide human dose selection, and some of the studies performed during clinical development. Target audience: This course is suitable for life scientists, clinicians, and individuals from fields that support drug discovery (e.g., patents, finance, licensing, etc.) interested in learning more about the pharmaceutical/biotechnology sector. Advanced undergraduate coursework or practical familiarity/working knowledge in biological sciences and organic chemistry is recommended.

Engage with Storytelling
In sales, strong solutions often stall because buyers struggle to understand, remember, or explain the value. Conversations move fast, stakeholders change, and details blur. This course teaches storytelling as a practical skill to structure messages clearly. Using the situation–>struggle–>solution framework, you will learn to organize information so buyers can follow your logic and retain key points. Structured messages reduce effort, helping buyers focus on evaluating fit rather than interpreting information. You will build skills in understanding why narratives improve retention and applying them to craft concise customer success stories. The course emphasizes clarity, relevance, and credibility, enabling you to communicate value effectively and create messages buyers can easily remember and share.

Containerized Applications on AWS
This course introduces you to container technologies and how they can be used to modernize your applications, as well as exploring how different AWS services can be used to manage and orchestrate those containers. Container technologies have existed for years, and are still gaining popularity. Two of the most prevalent options are Docker and Kubernetes - each with its own distinct set of features. Regardless of which technology you choose, one of the biggest challenges with containers is their orchestration. Unlike traditional, monolithic applications where you can only scale at a macro level - an executable, for example - containerized applications scale at the container level. When coupled with a microservices approach, each container can contain the code necessary to execute a single task or function. While this provides a number of benefits, a single application can consist of hundreds of containerized microservices. How do you handle starting, stopping, scaling out and scaling in all of these containers? AWS offers a number of services that help with container orchestration, including Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Amazon Lightsail, and Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR). Throughout this course, expert instructors will dive deep into these services as well as general container technologies and capabilities. This course uses a combination of video-based lectures, delivered by AWS technical trainers, demonstrations, and hands-on lab exercises to enable you to deploy and manage a containerized application.

Vaccine Law and Policy
In December 2020, when the Covid-19 vaccine became available to the public after less than one year of development, it had the distinction of being the most rapidly developed vaccine in history. The same month, Merriam-Webster announced that “vaccine” would be the word of the year for 2021. As the world awaited a vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 virus, interest in vaccine-related topics, such as funding, development, distribution, and policy surged. In this course, students will learn about the fundamental role of vaccines as a tool intended to improve public health and how this influences policy. Topics covered include vaccine regulation and monitoring; equity and access; individual decision-making; vaccine refusal and hesitation; advocacy and awareness- raising; and various state, federal, and organizational vaccine mandates. These mandates touch every sphere of personal and public life, including work, education, leisure activities, politics, and how healthcare practitioners interact with patients. Understanding vaccine policy will facilitate decision-making in these settings. This course is ideal for laypersons and professionals alike. It can be useful for individuals concerned about their families’ health; school administrators; municipal officials; community health advocates; and others. Lawyers, with other areas of expertise, looking to learn more about vaccine policy, as well as medical students and allied healthcare professionals, will also find value in this course.
