High school students gain insight from Stanford University faculty & trainees about going to college for careers in biomedical fields.
About this Event

Join us IN PERSON or VIRTUALLY for a workshop where high school students can talk with current Stanford faculty, grad students and trainees and learn how they pursued the career that they are passionate about!

You'll get an exciting peak into the cutting-edge research being done by Stanford Genetics, tour some labs and walk away with useful tips for presenting your science research. Perhaps you are interested in what classes to consider taking in high school or volunteer opportunities to learn more about bioscience careers? This presentation is for you!

The proceeds from the presentation support the STANFORD AT THE TECH PROGRAM. The Stanford at The Tech program brings Stanford graduate students and other early-career scientists to The Tech Interactive, a family-friendly science and technology center in the heart of downtown San Jose, for an intensive science communication experience. In addition to providing invaluable training to Stanford trainees, this program allows thousands of under-resourced Bay Area K-12 students each year to engage in hands-on biology learning facilitated by experts.
