From Symptoms to Solutions: Teaching Clinical Reasoning with Clinical Bricks
June 26, 2026
Clinical reasoning is one of the most important—and challenging—skills for health professions students to develop. In this InsideRx webinar, ScholarRx demonstrates how Clinical Bricks use patient-centered clinical presentations and structured reasoning frameworks to help learners move from chief complaint to diagnosis while reinforcing the foundational science behind clinical decision-making.
Whether you’re looking to introduce clinical reasoning earlier in the curriculum or strengthen students’ diagnostic thinking before clerkships, this session explores practical strategies for helping students think more like clinicians.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:
- Introduce clinical reasoning earlier in the curriculum
- Bridge foundational science and clinical decision-making
- Use patient-centered presentations to develop diagnostic reasoning
- Help students connect symptoms, underlying science, and differential diagnoses
- Better prepare learners for clinical practice through structured reasoning frameworks
