About the Academy: The program is a sequence of scaffolding courses, all aligned with appropriate national learning standards, which follows a proven hands-on, project-based, real-world problem-solving approach to learning. Students explore the concepts of human medicine and are introduced to topics such as forensics, physiology, genetics, microbiology, and infectious disease. Through activities, like dissections, students examine the processes, structures, and interactions of the human body, as well as real-world case studies that allow them to collaboratively problem solve various medical situations.
