Find Out More RegisterThis is super corny. But before, I thought that COOU medical students were a bunch of nerds, and they are! I spent 30 minutes yesterday in a hole reading about different muscles. But at the same time, while COOUMSITES are similar in that they’re generally pretty driven, they’re incredibly diverse.

Why Is the Medical Symbol a Snake on a Stick?
The image of serpents wrapped around a staff is a familiar one in the medical field, decorating pharmaceutical packaging and hospitals alike. Snakes bites are generally bad news, and so the animal might seem ill-fitting as the symbol of the medical profession, but the ancient emblem actually has a quite a story behind it.
The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.
