Summer check-in #4😻 Rising senior captain Sam has been doing research at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center! She works in a lab that studies genetics in a rat model to further understand metabolism, obesity, and diabetes. She’s loved being there because she gets to live in the charming city of Winston-Salem and learn science. She says, “Research is incredibly important because it leads to new discoveries and helps make medicine better and more precise. It’s been super rewarding to be a part of the research process.” #SmartyCat 🤓🐾
