Visit to the Universidad del Valle

Today, we worked in the hospital for the morning. I worked on cleaning microscopes and other equipment with Dr. P, Garrett, Karen, and Rosie. Lauren, Katherine, and Sung fixed vitals monitors. After working, we had yet another delicious lunch then headed back to the Nazarene Center. We got cleaned up and ventured to the University. We toured the engineering labs, which were incredibly nice and full of great equipment. Next, we shared presentations -- Rosie, Wade, and Katherine each presented their projects. Dr. Paschal gave a presentation about Vanderbilt and some of the research she does. A professor from the Universidad del Valle presented, as did three groups of students. We then shared a delicious dinner together! It was great to talk to the students and to share common ground with our engineering studies.
