Biomedical Sciences\u2019 (CVMBS) <a href=\"https:\/\/vetmed.tamu.edu\/peer\/\">Partnership for Environmental Education and Rural Health (PEER) program<\/a> introduced 670 elementary students to the world of veterinary medicine at the Franklin ISD Elementary STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Math) Night on Nov. 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By taking advantage of the young students\u2019 interest in animals, CVMBS professor <a href=\"https:\/\/vetmed.tamu.edu\/person\/367\">Dr. Larry Johnson<\/a> and PEER student fellows Megan Mize and Natalie Johnson were able to hold interactive discussions on animal anatomy, veterinary medicine, and the path to veterinary school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe taught students about the anatomy of different animals using actual preserved animal models,\u201d Natalie Johnson said. \u201cWe used the models to point out different organs and to compare the relative size of different organs in different animals, such as comparing the size of a dog\u2019s heart with a cow\u2019s heart.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event was Johnson\u2019s first hands-on science demonstration for kids, and she now looks forward to representing PEER and the CVMBS at similar events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe students were so interested in everything we were showing them and loved actually getting to touch the organs that make up the anatomy,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was amazing to see their fascination with the models and to watch as their eyes got wide when they realized that they were real, preserved animals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mize has been working with PEER for two years and has attended many similar events, but she says the experience of introducing kids to veterinary medicine is as exciting every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEach time I speak with the kids and their families I am blessed with the chance to see the beginning of someone\u2019s interest in the STEM field,\u201d Mize said. \u201cMy favorite part of these events is the look of excitement that each student has as they play the various games and identification exercises we provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe PEER program has been one of my most valuable experiences as an undergraduate student because it has provided me with the opportunity to spark the interest of much younger students in the vast field of medicine,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mize and Johnson, both <a href=\"https:\/\/bims.tamu.edu\/\">biomedical sciences (BIMS)<\/a> majors, also used the Franklin ISD STEAM Night to promote the BIMS major as a useful tool for preparing for veterinary school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">###<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For more information about the Texas A&amp;M College of Veterinary Medicine &amp;
