hannover

hello all,

we arrived in hannover on tuesday! since then we have seen alot of the vet and human medicine stuff! on tuesday we visited a hospital and everyone got to see open heart surgery! it was very interesting. we also learned about radiology and conducted some small magnetic experiments with the MRI machine.

on tuesday we went to MHH (M ha ha...lol) there we spoke with the head of the nephrology department! he was very interesting and we talked about the german health care system. prior to that discussion i didn't know much about germany's system. i took alot of notes so that i could talk about the comparisions in medical school interviews. tricky, i know.

we were all going to see harry potter last night but unfortunately the theather that has 2 showings in english is sold out till monday....................................

i wasn't happy about that.

tomorrow we're visiting bergen belson! i'm looking forward to this. since we visited anne frank's house last week...it will be a conclusion to exploring the latter years of her life. i have seen where she grew up and hid from the nazis and tomorrow i will get to see the place where she perished. it will be a very sad experience.

over and out,
s
