Junior Doctors Program
The Heart Dissection could be combined with DNA Day Celebration Event
It is similar to the Heart Dissection for High School students
Discover how the heart works and explore the foundations of human health!
The Junior Doctors Program – Heart Dissection: The Architecture of Life is an engaging, hands-on learning experience designed for students interested in medicine and human biology, and health sciences. Through interactive activities and expert-led sessions, students explore the structure and function of the human heart and gain insight into how different body systems work together to sustain life.
No prior lab or medical experience is required—just curiosity and an interest in learning about medicine and the human body.

This session of the BioMedEdu Junior Doctors Program introduces Middle school students to anatomy of the heart
Following the Heart Dissection, during the summer or a bit later, we plan to launch a Heart Disease Series, which will provide students with deeper insights into cardiovascular health. This series is expected to include opportunities for students to interact with heart disease patients, either in person or via Zoom, offering meaningful real-world perspectives on patient care and medical practice.

The Health Museum - The Journey to End Cancer: From Cause to Cure
Groundbreaking exhibition on cancer breakthroughs
This exhibition is an innovative new science exhibition on cancer – exploring groundbreaking research, advanced medical technologies, and promising new therapies.
Designed for both adults and children, this 5,000-square-foot exhibition is full of multimedia experiences, thought-provoking science interactives, dynamic animations, stunning data visualizations, and inspiring first-person videos to engage and empower exhibit-goers.
Guests play a pattern-copying game that demonstrates how some DNA changes leading to cancer result from “copy and paste” errors when cells replicate.
Guests step into one of the exhibition’s three-story pods. Here, visitors learn how treatment is deeply personal, yet never a solo journey. Each powerful video shares stories from survivors, their families, doctors and nurses, and behind-the-scenes staff – highlighting collaborations and celebrating those who play a role.
