Today, we went to UMASS medical school and did lots of cool stuff! First, we went on a tour of the simulation center. It's basically a bunch of rooms with these lifelike dolls that are used to simulate what it would be like to save a patients life. Rather than giving a real person a heart attack, scientists give a manakin a heart attack and students have to save its life. There was a normal human male manakin, an 8 year old manakin, a pregnant woman and baby manakin, a baby manakin, and a 10 minute old manakin. There's also a manakin that makes the noises of a heart, all sorts of different noises, to demonstrate the sound of a sick heart, a healthy heart, or a blocked heart. After the tour, we went to lunch, catered specialy to us! There were tons of different sandwiches and drinks and cookies. I think we were all stuffed afterwards! From there we went to a conference room to video chat with Dr. Liz Warner, head of the international space station(ISS). She gave us a short presentation on life at the ISS and answered all of our questions after. She was very kind to spend time with us. We also got a picture with her! That's all!Bye!
