What’s the Diagnosis?

In the High School class Advanced Biological Systems A, the resiliency of the human body is on display as students study physiological responses to situations that disrupt homeostasis, such as traveling to extremely high altitudes or developing a cancerous tumor.
In their final project, students chose a disruptive situation that they wanted to better understand and developed a case study to explore it. The students then created a blog site, What’s the Diagnosis? which can be viewed by clicking here where they share the stories of individuals who are facing challenges to their physiological balance, and how they respond.
 
Follow in real-time as our student sleuths study baffling medical mysteries in postings like Reaching Beyond Death, A Trip to the Doctor Turned Tragic, and more. Then stay tuned next week when they’ll share the full case studies with you!
