[Electives during preclinical medical curriculum: the Geneva experience ]

At the Faculty of Medicine of Geneva its importance was recognized early to satisfy the students' curiosity, enlarge their visions, or deepen their knowledge in certain aspects of their curriculum. It was therefore decided to develop a great number of different electives ranging from basic biomedical research to emblematic clinical syndromes and humanitarian medicine for 2nd and 3rd year Bachelor students. The Electives taken have to be validated through specific examinations corresponding to 10% of the yearly ECTS credits. The experience has so far been a success, with high satisfaction as well of the student as of the teacher body. A major challenge for the future will be opening further these Electives to other Faculties and other professions.

A cross sectional study with a self-administered questionnaire, adapted from the "the' new measure of concept of good death", was done among health personnel in 5 nursing homes (2 in Geneva and 3 from Valais) in spring 2004. One hundred and sixty one persons participated at the study representing over 90% of the personel contacted. Four points were considered hallmarks of "Good death" by more than 80% of respondents: i.e. pain control, serenity and peace, presence of family members or close friends, respect of the last will. Up to 70% further consider as important elements the support of health professionals, the opportunity to transmit one's values and access to spiritual and/or religious support. Around 50% of respondents also consider as important "being able to ch...

Little has been published about the scientific contribution of the movement, be it in terms of volume, topics, content, diffusion channels, production, or target sites.

Nine hundred twenty eight articles, published in 377 different journals, were reviewed. Among these articles, 43.7% had been written by one author and 56.3% by two or more authors.
