Medical students seeking a role model as they launch their careers should consider looking outside the realm of healthcare and instead turn to the late John Wooden, long-time UCLA men’s basketball coach, suggested Dr. Richard Gunderman at a campus lecture last month.
BCM’s Center for Educational Outreach has turned to some tiny helpers in its effort to advance quality teaching and learning opportunities in science and health. About 800 ants were launched into space and are now aboard the International Space Station, where their behavior is being studied by school children back on Earth.
In their second year of medical school, students at BCM begin the transition from classroom training to clinical rotations. It’s an exciting and busy time, but it doesn’t stop students, including Vidya Eswaran, from going above and beyond their duties as medical students to get involved in the community.
Every month we focus on an outstanding staff member of the BCM Family. This month, it’s Tonya Morris, with the School of Allied Health Sciences.
Taking care of your health is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. Baylor College of Medicine experts have plenty of tips to help you stay healthy. This month’s Health Hint provides heart health tips.
