In our "Disease" course this winter term, we delved into the fascinating world of disease identification and classification, focusing on various body systems and their responses to illness. To deepen our understanding, we visited the Museum of Science and Industry’s "YOU!" exhibit, where we saw real human specimens and observed the "Exploded Man," a powerful display of anatomy in three dimensions. This visit set the stage for our Action Project (AP), in which we each created a fictional patient diagnosed with a specific disease, detailing its effects on the body systems through a visual representation. My project centered around spinal meningitis, including a patient profile and a narrative of the diagnosis and treatment.
