Medical Interventions

Course Title: 
Medical Interventions
Course Description: 

Medical Interventions is the third course offered in the Project  Lead the Way Biomedical Program. This course is designed for  11-12 graders who have successfully completed Principles of Biomedical Sciences (PBS) and Human Body Systems  (HBS). In this course, “students follow the life of a fictitious  family as they investigate how to prevent, diagnose, and treat  disease. Students explore how to detect and fight infection;  screen and evaluate the code in human DNA; evaluate cancer  treatment options; and prevail when the organs of the body  begin to fail. Through real-world cases, students are exposed to  a range of interventions related to immunology, surgery,  genetics, pharmacology, medical devices, and diagnostics.”
