Abstract：With the continuous advancement of medical education reform and the increasing demand for diversified medical talents,interdisciplinary integration has gradually become a fundamental aspect of project-based learning(PBL).Based on this,our team at Sichuan University implemented an interdisciplinary PBL course on"Emerging Contaminants,Carbon Neutrality,and Healthy Aging."The course integrates multiple disciplines,including environmental science,clinical medicine,and public health,utilizing PBL to help students deeply understand the impact of environmental pollution on the health of the elderly.During the course design,we developed a deep learning-based intelligent teaching platform to automatically match project characteristics with student profiles,optimize group formation and project management,thereby enhancing teaching efficiency and student engagement.At last,this article summarized the practical experiences and improvements gained from our team's PBL course and provided an outlook on the future development of PBL under the support of modern educational technology.
