The Cleveland Clinic eXpressions® program is an award-winning educational initiative that engages middle and high school students in the creative exploration of science and medicine. Through project-based, peer-to-peer learning, students translate research studies conducted by Cleveland Clinic summer interns, producing artistic, literary, and mathematical interpretations of the science.
This year’s theme and research addressed five important community health topics: heart disease, obesity, infant mortality, opioids/pain management, and diabetes. Students analyzed the research on these topics and interpreted it through their artistic expression.
