PIE Exhibit on now at the Scott Library

The John W. Scott Health Sciences Library is proud to partner with the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, by exhibiting art projects created by second year students in the University of Alberta’s MD program.

The Patient Immersion Experience (PIE) program is an initiative introduced in 2013.

Incoming medical students are partnered with a patient mentor in an innovative program designed to instill a deeper understanding of the human side of medicine by learning directly from patients’ experience of disease and illness.

A tale of health by Chris Christensen, Mark Drew, Emma Hjartarson and Katie Yurkiw

The culmination of this program is the creation of a unique piece of art inspired by the experiences and connections forged between student and patient.

Wrapped in my restrictions by Nicole Labine, Ahmed Mourad and Rebecca Entz
