Stem Cell Outreach

ETOX graduate student Lauren Walker with Maricela Maldonado and Catherine Augello, graduate students from the Bioengineering Graduate Program recently participated in a Stem Cell Day at Tahquitz High School in Hemet where they talked with the students about toxicology, stem cells and regenerative medicine.  Lauren indicated that they had some good discussions with the students.  Below are some photos from the event.  My thanks to Lauren for sending the photos and for helping organize the outreach activity.
