About

The project "Rhythm" was initiated by six students. As part of the University of Florida Medigators Mentorship program, we were tasked to help solve a problem related to healthcare. We chose to focus on medical education- aiming to create awareness about the benefits of various art therapies for patients with Parkinson's disease.​
