...this was something the students learnt from Dr Emma Slater (Interim Student Recruitment Manager), who gave an interesting talk about SHMS (School of Health and Medical Sciences).  

On Friday 8 May, The Elite Scientists presented their research findings on their project: " Effect of various emotive stories on the pulse pressure of Year 7-9 Students ” via a talk with their poster, to their fellow peers and academics at Saint George's, University of London.   

They elicited a lot of courage to do this!!  Well done!

The students really enjoyed their day, however they were very excited about the paramedic simulation rooms, where they were in a simulated snowy forest and fireworks in a city. They also got to see the anatomy room, where they saw virtual bodies on a screen, that were originally real! They also got to see the veins and arteries in their lower arms using ultrasound!! (no cameras were allowed there – sorry folks)

It was a great day, well done to everyone! 

Amazing talks, amazing library, and amazing paramedic simulation!!
