College and Beyond (21+)

Learn what makes stem cells such an important tool for scientists interested in making medicine with a lesson by vertex stem cell scientists. Students will get a chance to hear directly from Vertex scientists and ask questions after the pre-recorded lesson.

All volunteers who work with youth are invited to attend this role model training session.

Failure is an important part of the the science and engineering process.

While youth (especially girls) fear failure, STEM professionals have and continue to fail many times in their careers. In this workshop, you will learn storytelling skills to help you artfully communicate your experiences with failing – and the lessons learned – to younger audiences.

The Scripps Research Community Symposium is a public event that invites the community — K-12 teachers, high school students, families with children, community college students, and more — to meet our scientists, hear from our graduate students, and interact with our science in fun and engaging ways. This year expect topics in circadian rhythm, covid19, citizen science initiatives and much much more.
