Men’s Swimming & Diving Visits Hasbro Children’s Hospital
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Members of the Brown men's swimming & diving team recently visited Hasbro Children's Hospital with the Brown University Oncology Group
(BrUOG) BrownCures program.
"It was honestly one of the best and most rewarding experiences of my time at Brown," said sophomore Carson Christuk. "It is something I think our men can continue to get involved in for future years."
The team is the third Brown athletic program to visit the hospital this year with volleyball and men's hockey previously making trips. The men's swimming & diving team split up into two groups with a member of BrUOG and a Child Life Specialist from the hospital and visited with children and young adults. Bruno, the school's mascot, was also in attendance and spent time with patients.
BrUOG was created in 1994 to advance clinical cancer research at Brown University and its affiliated hospitals. Led by Medical Director Howard Safran, MD, BrUOG's team of top-flight physicians and researchers is dedicated to improving cancer care through the implementation of innovative, multidisciplinary clinical trials.
