Las Ganas ASP 096 Image of mentors with mentees
In this week’s class, we had the opportunity for some 1-on-1 mentee-mentor time, where we got horchata, cookies, and conchas to share with the group. We spent the time discussing how our week has been and catching up with each other in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Research Fellowship
In the research fellowship class, Las Ganas fellows learned about what science means and how to approach it. Touched on topics like laboratory etiquette and imposter syndrome as a Latinx student.
