Earlier this month, UNMC hosted its twice-yearly De-Stress Week. Started in 2019, De-Stress Week offers an opportunity for faculty, staff and students to take a minute and relax at a variety of events and activities before the end of the semester.
Here are some scenes from this semester’s De-Stress Week.

This year, the med center community provided more than $800 worth of donations to the Nebraska Medicine Pediatric Unit, with $500 in games, books and toys and $300 in monetary donations.
Thanks to everyone who helped support this year’s drive.
