Abstract: The advancement of the New Medical Science initiative has introduced new demands for medical talent development. As foundational disciplines in medical education, histology and embryology must align with evolving clinical requirements and industrial advancements. This article is based on the concept of clinical needs and integration of science and education, and constructs a“four in one”teaching mode of“integration of medicine and education, task driven, ability improvement, and job competence”. With the curriculum outline as the basic principle and the goal of cultivating top-notch innovative talents in medicine, this teaching mode is applied in the teaching of medical imaging. Students show high learning interest and enthusiasm for participation, thereby improving the teaching effectiveness of histology and embryology courses.

Key words: Histology and embryology, New medical education, Clinical needs, Integration of science and education, Integration of medical education and healthcare, Teaching model
