eHealth Young Innovators Summer Camp
The eHealth Young Innovators Summer Camp is run by UBC and proudly sponsored by TELUS. It is designed for high school students entering grades 10-12 in September 2012. All campers will experiment with eHealth technologies, carry out first aid on virtual patients, visit behind-the scenes parts of a hospital and the TELUS Innovation Centre. There will also be visits from professionals and a careers day will allow students to explore potential career pathways. Students will complete a project mentored by UBC Faculty and health informatics students and each day will include 30 minutes of sports and a healthy nutritious lunch with a snack and beverage.
