 I am Dr.Anahita Behara from KIMS,Nkp and today I shall demonstrate the benefits of a case based learning ecosystem (CCBLE) , as a budding medical student full of curiosity ,  i was fascinated by the revelling mystery of the numerous diseases encountered during my study . I was deeply disturbed  by my inability to make a change . I had such big dreams but no way of achieveing them , until I was introduced to the concept of Case-based learning or  Patient-centric learning , following up on patients even after they were discharged and monitoring their lifestyle habits , gave us a window to view not only the "dis-ease" but the "ease" as well , linking all the domains of health .  It humanises the patient and forces us to look at the bigger picture.
