The Brains of ALC

Submitted by preston.powell on

The health science pre-medical students at the ALC are showing off their brains...literally. They recently completed their nervous system module with Weber State University and were asked to dissect and flag the important structures of an animal brain. The students were excited to give their learning a three-dimensional, hand-on perspective.Also, this was intended to prepare them, in addition to there many other upcoming dissections, for the annual cadaver lab field trip. On this Springtime trip the students will have a day to study cadavers that were prepared by the U of U medical school students. They will gain valuable experience in preparation for their careers in healthcare.

The 2012-2013 ALC health science pre-medical students are the pioneers of the early college integration program. We are excited to continue the legacy in the upcoming 2013-2014 school year. If you are interested in being a part of this ALC experience, please contact your school counselor about your interest and they will get you registered. Also, feel free to contact Mr. Curtis at sean.curtis [at] nebo.edu (sean[dot]curtis[at]nebo[dot]edu) with any questions.
