their health. Using Construction Sets for Health as a strategy, students will explore the diversity of possibilities that can be applied when patients are empowered to design their own solutions. Students will participate in a team project in one of four design/mentor
tracks, supported by lectures and hands-on labs taught in MITs new Medical Makerspace. </span></font></div>
