Enter the world of medicine and unlock the mysteries of the human body with this camp for aspiring surgeons and biomedical engineers! Campers will delve into the core knowledge needed by surgeons, including anatomy, immunology, pathology, wound healing, and more. Through hands-on activities such as dissecting a frog from head to toe, creating models, and practicing first aid techniques, campers will gain a deeper understanding of the human body and how it works. They will learn about the microbiology of viruses and how to prevent or stop their spread. In addition, campers will explore the technology used by biomedical engineers and then design solutions such as helmets and knee braces to prevent or address health problems. At the end of the week, each camper will receive a stethoscope and first aid supplies and take their “Medical Boards” to receive their certificate. This camp is the perfect opportunity for campers who are intrigued by the medical field.
