During this time participants work with their clinical mentor to observe andidentify “pain points” and potential opportunities for entrepreneurial project development. Eachteam brings their observations back to the SIDE course for discussion with the entire cohort. Thisreporting takes place in the form of a “Student Grand Rounds” type reporting, where studentspresent on cases or
