A remote jungle in the Amazon basin deep in Ecuador is no place to fall mysteriously ill, but that's what has happened to a researcher working on new treatments for cancer.

Now imagine having your fate lie in the hands of high school students back in the United States. That's the scenario that unfolds in CyberSurgeons™, a distance learning mission that the National Institutes of Health have charged the Center for Educational Technologies with creating.
