In their senior year capstone course, Biomedical Innovations students are asked to choose from a variety of health related books, which they read over the course of the class. They share what they learn with their peers through daily Live Tweets. The final and major component of the project is to create a book review. For many students, reading non-fiction for fun is a new concept. The goal in this project is to offer timely, fascinating biomedical books, and to show students that continuing their education in biomedical science can be informal, and lifelong, all through a love of reading.
