Here's a favorite of mine -- exotic, nasty, rare in the U.S. Just what high schoolers need.

The New England Journal of Medicine prints a case file every week. Many with slides and autopsy reports. Just have to hope that the kids don't miss out on the fun by finding the article straight away.

Are you sure HS kids can handle this? Most HS students are real immature and don't have the patience to do dedicated individual research like that.

What class is it for?

the class is for gifted high-schoolers that are intereseted in pre-med. so whether they can handle it or not, I have to challange them.
