Thank you to Tracy Gifford from the WRTP/Big Step program for taking senior Aiden Johnson to an externship with Operating Engineers Local 139 in Coloma, WI!

May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month—a time to support patients, advance research, and raise awareness for all types of brain tumors. 💙
Our Advanced Skills Anatomy & Physiology students explored what brain tumors are, studied real medical images, and identified symptoms based on different areas of the brain.
Today, they watched an actual surgical resection removing a brain tumor. Students then read about fluorescent surgery which allows doctors to label tumors with fluorescent tags that will make the tumor 'light up' during surgery to help differentiate healthy tissue from cancerous tissue.
Finally, students 'scrubbed in' to simulate the procedure with gelatin brains, UV flashlights and UV tagged 'tumors'. Students created patient notes for the surgery indicating where the tumor was located, symptoms that suggested a tumor in that specific area of the brain, and if the removal the tumor was successful or if the use of UV light showed more tissue needed to be removed. 🧠
