My experiences with general cellular and neural cellular pathology in a case based blended learning ecosystem's CBBLE

  From the Author   Hi, this is Amili Dutta, a medical student currently studying in India. In this blog post, I aim to briefly compile as well as describe some fascinating cases that I have come across so far in my undergraduate program. I would also like to mention some of the lessons I have learnt through out the course, as well as elaborate on an interesting yet intriguing case of Multifocal motor neuropathy, which in my opinion, was a challenging case I have come across till date.    I would like to thank my seniors and my professors for giving me this opportunity, for patiently guiding and teaching me from the small lessons on how to handle a patient to concepts I would never forget. Without their contributions, this post wouldn't be in an organized form as you read it today.    So without further ado, I welcome you to read on further and encourage you to try and view these cases from an eyes of a simple yet curious medical student.
