Wow! The six weeks internship i had been waiting for has began. 2 weeks down the line,alot has already been experienced. The first week was more of introduction and getting to know the rice interns.Wow!!what an amazing team they are and am loving their campanie.we were then introduced on different devices used in the design studio such as the lasercutter,3D printer and also soldering  which will help us hence our projects.

I have been assigned to pnuemashoe project with millie.A device that uses pnuematic compression to prevent blood clotting.we are really going to put all our best to come up with the best design and see it being introduced in hospitals and also for home use.

The second week was more of hospital visits. We visited mulanje,thyolo,chiradzulu and zomba hospitals to look into the different devices they use and problems they face with the devices. We also had the chance to get feedback on the current pnuemashoe designed by rice students in all these hospitals.

as they say”All work no play makes jack a dull boy” a stopover at one of the best hotels in mulanje,hapuwani and a photoshoot in the tea plantations of thyolo refreshed our minds.The trill of driving up zomba mountain to chawe inn brought in fun among us……..
