Please join our interesting Biography Project. Our goal is to place a short (100 word) biography outside of each patient's room; we need volunteers to conduct and write up interviews with our patient's so we can post the biographies. It's a great way of getting the "backstories" about people who have led full and often fascinating lives, and it is an activity that patients love to participate in!
