Allison Nakanishi

Allison Nakanishi is a student in the Vancouver Fraser Medical Program.  She worked with Dr. de Leeuw and alongside fellow medical student, Annika Klopp, on a summer research project, “Art Days” during the summer of 2011.  The project took place in Fort St. James in partnership with the Nak’azdli Health Centre, and examined the connections people make between art, health and community.
