Hands-On Experience

As part of the Scripps Research Summer Research Internship Program in La Jolla, 19 high school students, three teachers, and two undergraduates spent eight weeks gaining valuable hands-on experience in laboratories across the campus. After attending eight weeks of seminars in the spring, interns were well prepared to make the most of the opportunity.

Here, Jessica Tsai of Westview High School, works in Assistant Professor Elizabeth Thomas's lab.
