Summer Internship

Last summer, BCI was honored to host three University of South Carolina medical students at our outpatient clinic at the public hospital burn unit in Cochabamba, Bolivia. Daniel, Will, and Jonathan did such an excellent job that we decided we should make it a yearly event. I am excited that this summer BCI will join with USC School of Medicine again in Bolivia for a summer internship begining May 30. Over the next few days I want to introduce you to the students who will be joining me at the burn center and then over the summer, please tune in for regular updates.
