Announcing the Organ Challenge Winners!

The Harvard Medical and Dental School class of 2016 is pleased to announce the winners of The Organ Challenge! The talents of children and teenagers around the world came together to produce beautiful collaborations of science and art. We were so impressed with the enthusiasm, creativity, and brilliance demonstrated in all of the videos. Whether you're beginning your journey or you're about to enter your hardest year of medical school (like we are!), we hope you continue to find the exploration of science to be just as fun and rewarding!
