Description
How does a person go from completing their first Punnett square in middle or high school to finding the next breakthrough, curating a scientific journal, or counseling patients? There are many careers one can pursue with a focus on human genetics research. The next ASHG webinar will provide an outline of the different educational and career paths, and steps along those paths, that students at the middle or high school level can begin to pursue now, all with real examples from experts in the field.
Learning Objectives
