Are you interested in learning more about the human body through hands-on lab experiences? In this Summer Honors Institute, funded by the Ohio Department of Education, participants will have the opportunity to engage in a challenging exploration of topics related to human body systems, health and wellness. Each day is structured around patient cases which provide a framework for in-depth study of gross anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology through lecture, human cadaver dissection, laboratory activities and exploration of related tests, measures and interventions.
Each day of the 4-day camp is centered on different body systems and associated patient cases as follows:
Day 1 - Musculoskeletal System: Upper Extremity
Day 2 - Musculoskeletal System: Lower Extremity
Day 3 - Nervous System: Central and Peripheral
Day 4 - Cardiopulmonary System
