Train to become a competent, compassionate, and curious osteopathic physician who can meet the medical needs of patients and communities.

Human interaction is at the heart of osteopathic medicine. Through touch and patient dialogue, doctors of osteopathic medicine diagnose patients and foster communication. Now, though, KansasCOM is employing a range of state-of-the-art technological innovations to maximize medical classroom and lab instruction and prepare students for the vital, interpersonal moments they’ll encounter in real-life practice.

The Kansas Education and Research Network (KERN) is a Practice Based Research Network that serves as a research body within Kansas Health Science University (KHSU). The goal of the network is to allow practices, students, and physicians to come together to engage in clinical analysis that improves the continuum of care for all.

At KERN, members have the ability to discuss trending challenges in their field, conduct research with one another, and share insights about the unique aspects of their practice. When the community of KERN collaborates, they effectively connect research and practice while discovering various professional development and continuing education opportunities from KHSU.
