Grant Description

Increase student and community awareness of STEM careers, particularly those in regenerative medicine, manufacturing, and engineering. We also want to increase the number of students from diverse populations learning about STEM careers. It is critical to foster students' enthusiasm and interest which will ultimately increase the pipeline of students entering into STEM related majors and eventually the workforce in these extremely important areas.

Photos from the June 2017 Let's Explore STEM camp show students learning about science and regenerative medicine. Students today, health professionals and scientists tomorrow!
