McLean Hospital Visit: July 12th
McLean Hospital kindly offered our students a tour this past Friday. We visited several facilities including a Neurobiology Laboratory that focuses on the science of fear, McLean's Imagining center, and their very own Brain Bank! Interns were able to observe and touch donated human brains at the brain bank. They were also able to see how an MRI machine works!
MEDScience: July 10th
Project Success student interns participated in a workshop with MEDscience, a high school STEM education initiative program that aims to inspire students to engage in medicine and science through a hands on experience. Interns were challenged with the task of taking on a medical case and solving it in order to save their patient! Not surprisingly, our intelligent and gifted interns were able to solve the case! Their patient was suffering from an asthma attack and was then able to provide the appropriate treatment to save them! We thank the wonderful facilitators for a memorable experience!
