About this camp

The Davidson College STEM & Medicine Camp, part of Lavner Education's Camp Tech Revolution, offers a hands-on exploration of various STEM fields with a focus on medicine. Campers engage in activities such as 3D modeling prosthetics using cutting-edge design software, performing virtual simulated surgeries, and writing code. They delve into understanding the human body's structure, including bones, muscles, and the nervous system, and explore forensic anthropology to identify bones. The curriculum also covers body systems through virtual dissections, basic medical history taking, CPR, pulse and respiration counts, and the science behind medical tests like X-rays, CTs, and MRIs. Students will also learn how math relates to medicine through case studies and projects, and explore DNA science, gene therapies, and mRNA science. The camp aims to develop critical thinking skills by analyzing medical cases, interpreting test results, and formulating diagnoses, fostering creativity as they solve medical mysteries and design experiments. The program emphasizes experiential learning, skill building, and collaboration in a university setting.
