Fifth graders from Clardy Elementary School listen to a second-year medical student on the how the brain works on Friday at the Paul L. Foster School of Medicine. ( AARON MARTINEZ EL PASO TIMES)

The students at the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center-Paul L. Foster School of Medicine were a lot younger Friday when fifth graders took over the labs and classrooms.

As part of the "Seeds of Change" partnership between the medical school and Clardy Elementary School, about 80 fifth graders visited the medical school and were taught about science and health issues by faculty members and medical students.

"This is very exciting and fun," said Anapaula Garcia, one of the elementary school students. "Right now, we were learning about how the right and left side of the brain works. It is really cool how different parts of your brain work and the effects it has on you."

Anapaula said she was grateful for the opportunity to go to the medical school and see first hand what medical students study. She said she dreams of one day becoming a doctor.

"I want to be a pediatrician, so I am very happy I got this opportunity to study medicine and learn from medical students," said Anapaula, 10. "They (medical students) say it is fun and exciting so I am very excited to become a doctor. I know this is what I want to do, so today was very fun."

The lessons included how the heart and brain work, how bones break and how they are repaired, an overview of the human anatomy and what medical students study and do at the school.

"It was really fun working with the doctors," said Ellen Hernandez, another fifth grader who found a new interest in the health field. "It was interesting and I feel like I'm actually studying here and working to become a doctor."

Two of the main goals of the program is to educate the students about living a healthier life and stressing the importance of continuing their education.

"This is a great experience for them," said Leticia Foster, principal of Clardy Elementary School and who has no relation to Paul Foster. "It exposes them to the science and medical fields and encourages them to complete high school, go to college and continue their education."

TEMPLE TERRACE, Fla. Its a Tuesday around 5:30 p.m. and Floridas self-proclaimed first professor of Cannabis, Carlos Hermida, is discussing the most prevalent cannabinoids found in marijuana. Thats soon followed by the difference between lab techniques: gas chromatography vs. high performance liquid chromatography.

This lecture has gone to pot. They are discussing the intricacies of weed.

Outsiders might consider it a stoners dream. But most of the 12 students crammed into this small classroom view it as a business opportunity.

Welcome to Medical Marijuana Tampa or, as some are calling it, Cannabis U complete with its own slick slogan: "Take Your Career To A Higher Level."

Pepper plants are used as a cannabis-like substitute by the instructors at Medical Marijuana Tampa.

In a nondescript building just outside Tampa, Jeremy Bufford, 33, is building an empire.

Or so he hopes.

He came up with the idea almost four years ago, he said, but didnt anticipate this quick of a rollout. Plans were sped up once organizers of the medical marijuana initiative in Florida got it on the November 2014 ballot instead of 2016.

"We want to approach cannabis from a historical, from a legal, from a botanical and from a pharmacological perspective."

This Tampa-area location is Buffords first. He had planned to house the school in a former cigar factory but his landlord kicked him out when he discovered what the business was. Bufford scrambled for a new lease.

Medical marijuana schools take root

Usually medical students learn about health but today they are the teachers.

Medical school takes a lot of discipline, hard work and dedication and over the past two days ACOM has been spreading that message To students interested in the health field. Med Students have enjoyed giving students insight and that has been a wonderful experience for first-year med school student Talha Ahmed.

"It's nice seeing people come and being super stoked and interested in what we are doing here and it's good motivation for us here too to make sure that we keep knowing and are able to answer questions and stuff like that for them," said Ahmed.

Ahmed participated in an inaugural education workshop for students in the Wiregrass. This opportunity came together through the help of anatomy assistant professor Larissa Collier. She feels that seminar's like this can be very valuable. It gives high school kids a heads up on what to expect in the near future.

"This was an opportunity for them to come in and see what a Medical School looks like and actually talk to medical students and see you know what kind of facilities that are here in their area. Rather than having to travel to say to another city or having to travel to another state to look at a medical education," said Collier.

The two-day workshop engages high school students. It allows them to participate in interactive activities like checking pulses and learning about high blood pressure and this is all about giving back and preparing the youth for "A day in the life of a Medical School Student.

"It does give them a heads up because I think it gives them an idea of what they could do," said Collier.

That glimpse could be just what young students need to put them in the right direction towards their career paths.

"It was a lot of fun for us to put together and really bring in a big community outreach program that would impact not only the community and high school students but our students as well," said Collier.

The American Association of Anatomists and the Southeast Alabama Medical Center Foundation funded this year's workshop. ACOM plans to host more workshops for students in the future.
