Whitney Stevens-Sostre, a graduate student in Dr. Gail Robertson’s lab, will represent UW-Madison at the Yale Ciencia Academy for Career Development.
The Yale Ciencia Academy (YCA) for Career Development provides graduate students with opportunities for mentoring, networking, and skills development, and for making contributions to their communities through science outreach. The program is designed to mentor young Latinx scientists; Fellows take part in a year-long mentoring and career guidance program which begins with an in-person meeting at AAAS.
The program is led by the non-profit organization Ciencia Purerto Rico (CienciaPR), in collaboration with Yale University.
