The Heithoff-Brody High School Summer Scholars program represents a lasting expression of Jonas Salk’s desire to provide young learners with a foundation on which they can become scientific leaders. Participants are able to work in the labs, and they receive a stipend for their work, as well as hands-on experience. This year, 12 students participated in the program. Some of the research areas they were able to explore included stem cells, plant biology and molecular neurobiology.
