mRi™: myRESEARCH illuminated

2009 Season

How are high school students shaping the future of healthcare?

That’s the question Creative Learning Interns set out to answer in this year’s exciting new season of mRi™. Join McKenzie, Megan, and Clare as they travel across Cleveland Clinic to learn about five of their peers’ summer projects.

From advancing research on Alzheimer’s disease, respiratory distress syndrome, and laparoscopic livery surgery to improving patient education on sleep apnea and blood transfusions, Cleveland Clinic high school interns are making a huge difference in healthcare. And mRi™ makes it possible for you to see for yourself!
