Abstract
PLEXUS is a student-organized publication that showcases artwork by the UCI School of Medicine students, physicians, faculty, staff, and patients.True to its name, PLEXUS aspires to connect those who seek to heal and to be healed through the unifying language of art. This year we continued to expand our presence in the UCI medical community and beyond.For our 18th edition of PLEXUS, we chose the theme of “Beneath the Surface, Between the Lines.” Throughout our lives and in medicine, there is more than meets the eye – a story untold. There is so much left unseen if we simply look at the surface. Every year we are amazed by the emotions, reflections, stories, richness, and creativity of the submissions. We thank all of our submitters for their time and thought. Additionally, please find our performing arts pieces on our website, www.uciplexus.org. Previous publications and submissions are also available online.Winners of the PLEXUS medical student competitions were made possible by the Program in Medical Humanities & Arts.
