Thanks to a grant from the Women's Foundation of Southern Arizona, BioME now supports undergraduate women working in K-12 science outreach activities. Each semester, five undergraduate women majoring in STEM disciplines will work with BioME graduate fellows and BIO5 outreach personnel to bring hands-on science to young students.
