Last week, 25 high school and first year college students who are part of Perelman School of Medicine’s Outreach, Education, and Research (OER) pathway program visited Penn Medicine’s Radiation Oncology department and toured the clinic. These students completed 16-hours of research during the school year and are experiencing hands-on lab work, mentoring from faculty and trainees, and weekly workshops focused on college and career readiness. The goal of the OER program is to instill in Philadelphia-area students the confidence and competence to pursue a STEM career and to create a supportive network for them within PSOM. #philly #phillyoutreach #whyilovephilly #educationoutreach
