“Today was the poster symposium to celebrate the end of the 2024 Program to Enhance Diversity in Cancer Research in the Department of Cancer Biology at Wake Forest University School of Medicine and the Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center. Our scholars from Winston-Salem State University, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, North Carolina State University, University of North Carolina at Pembroke, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and University of South Carolina presented posters on their summer research projects. It was great to meet the students family and friends while they showed off their work. This is one of the best days each summer and I look forward to being able to continue the program. This is just one step to enhance diversity in STEM. Thank you at all the faculty, students, and staff who helped mentor our summer scholars!”
