Cleveland Clinic-affiliated OU medical school opens

Ohio University's Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine opened a new facility at Cleveland Clinic South Pointe Hospital, according to The Post.

The $20.2 million project enables students to work with physicians from the Cleveland Clinic in facilities that mirror the medical center's. OU-HCOM and the Cleveland Clinic are also working together to start a new curriculum.

"We want to provide a longitudinal education experience rather than different systems that are completely disjointed," said OU-HCOM Cleveland Dean Isaac Kirstein. "We want to design a school curriculum and residency curriculum that mesh together."

Fifty-one students are attending the college's Cleveland campus.
