Our Community Outreach group welcomed high school juniors and seniors to our Summer Biomedical Academy over the last two days! They explored our programs: Neuroscience, Therapeutics and Pharmacology, Genetics and Epigenetics, Molecular and Translational Biology, and Immunology through interactive presentations and lab tours, heard career and college prep talks, and played Jeopardy! Big thanks to our volunteers and student presenters for inspiring these future science and medical professionals! #WeAreGSBS #futurescientists @TAPatGSBS @MTBatGSBS @NeuroMDAUTH @GSBS_Outreach
Today wraps Day 1 of Summer Biomedical Academy! High school students emerged in activities led by graduate students from our Neuroscience, TAP, G&E, and Immunology Programs. Thank you to all the volunteers and students. We look forward to tomorrow! 🧬🔬🧠🥼🧪
Last month, Outreach visited the DeBakey Cell Lab Interns at the Houston Health Museum. The day was filled with meaningful interactions with high school students through a research journey panel, a biomedical research discussion, and a hands-on CRISPR activity.
Zohra, one of our volunteers, shared her highlight of the day: “My favorite part of the event was seeing the interns' genuine curiosity about how to pursue research opportunities. It was inspiring to see their dedication as they navigate the next stage of their academic journeys”
