Last week we learned how to make "plarn" from our friends and together we are going to weave mats for the homeless population. Our service learning project is just getting started!

First lab of the year was an ELISA to "see" how antibodies can be used to detect disease. BioMed students were able to identify which patients tested positive for the mystery illness. We don't always get accurate results so this was exciting!

Over 140 tubes prepped so that Biomed can identify which of our patients have the mystery illness during lab. #engageSDOW

Grateful to have students back in class this week. We worked on email etiquette, setting agreement norms, mastering technology, and researching our reasons for exploring biomed. #welcomebacklearners #learningneverstops

Here is another ER design model. This group's innovation is having a way to treat and care for patients with a medical need who do not need ER services - which is good for the community!

The first ER presentation was a success! This team innovated the space and resources available with built in drawers accessible in two rooms. #futuremedicalprofessionals

Biomed students are innovating the emergency room experience. This is the beginning of building models. I can't wait to see more! #Futuremedicalprofessionals #innovationleaders

Biomed students job shadowed yesterday and were so excited to share their experiences. We heard about horses, baby lambs, teeth extractions, and muscle work. Their enthusiasm is exciting! #proudteacher #futuremedicalprofessionals #passionprojects

While some students were job shadowing with medical professionals, several attempted our version of laparoscopy. #Notsurgeonsyet #Biomed #welovelearning
