The experimental class received personalized medical teaching through introducing idea and method of personalized medicine. The control class received conventional teaching. The effect of teaching was evaluated by questionnaire and examination. The data were analyzed through Chi-square and t-test test. Result Questionnaire survey of satisfaction showed that 37 students of experimental class (92.5%) were interested in the new course. Questionnaire survey of teaching effect showed that in experimental class 36 students (90%) felt it could increase learning interest, 37 students (92%) believed it improved glioma diagnosis and treatment, 34 students (85%) felt their medical view ex-panded, 38 students had consolidated clinical thinking, and 32 students (80%) improved negotiation with patients. All issues were significantly better than control class (P<0.05). Meanwhile, statistical difference was found in average score between experiment class and control class [(88.71 ±6.54) vs. (76.49 ±7.32)] (P=0.000). Conclusion The introduction of personalized medicine concept helps medical students to make personalized diagnosis and treatment plan for glioma patients, and is conducive to the cultivation of their clinical thinking ability and evidence based medicine concept, which is worthy of promotion.
