Summer Programs
The GW School of Medicine and Health Sciences hosted a multitude of summer programs for high school and undergraduate students interested in pursuing careers in medicine, the health professionsm or research.
Lexis Deshazor-Burnett, a rising junior at North Carolina A&T State University, credits the George Washington University (GW) Summer Program Advancing Research on Cancer (GW-SPARC) with opening her eyes to the myriad research paths she could follow.
For high school students, making the decision about how to spend the summer months can be difficult. But for the 16 girls who attended the Genomic Opportunities for Girls In Research Labs (GO GIRL) summer program, held from June 11-14, the choice was easy.
