Abstract：With the aging of the population in China,the standardized training of geriatricians is required.Geriatric medical education is characterized by interdisciplinary,multiple medications,and complex assessment methods for geriatric syndromes.The traditional"academic"teaching method is difficult to form a complete knowledge chain for geriatric medical students,which is inconsistent with the"holism"and"integration thought"in modern medical education.The medical training model organ of system-based curriculum(OSBC)can integrate the knowledge of various disciplines horizontally and vertically,strengthen the correlation between basic disciplines and clinical courses,which is beneficial to the training of interdisciplinary composite talents and the improvement of humanistic quality.The application of OSBC in geriatric physician training conforms to the current reform direction of clinical medical education,which is of great significance to promote the progress of medical and health care.This article expounds the development status of OSBC education,the existing geriatric education model and the development prospect of OSBC in geriatric education.
