SCCMA and Standford Transformative Experience in Medicine

https://stemprogram.wordpress.com

Brandon Pham is one of the student directors of a program called SCCMA Stanford Transformative Experience in Medicine (SSTEM), which is a 3-week program at Stanford aimed at providing high school students from primarily underrepresented backgrounds with exposure to the medical field that would have otherwise been difficult to obtain.

The program will take place during 3 Saturdays on October 20th, October 27th, and November 3rd, 2018 from roughly 8am to 12pm. Students will have a chance to hear talks from physicians and have the opportunity to participate in hands-on dissections of cow hearts, pig eyes, etc. More information about our organization can be found below:

They have extended the application deadline for this opportunity to Friday, September 28th, 2018. The link to the application can be found in website above.

The Santa Clara County Medical Association (SCCMA) and the Stanford chapter of the American Medical Association welcome you to the SCCMA
and Stanford Transformative Experience in Medicine (SSTEM) program for the 2018-19 academic year!
The SSTEM program is aimed at providing high school students with exposure to the medical field that would have otherwise been difficult to obtain. By giving local students an opportunity to explore health professions, our hope is that this program will inspire local students to pursue a career in medicine and to serve the future healthcare needs of the community.
