    Scientists of Tomorrow Tour

    Six outstanding students from the Institute's Feinberg Graduate School traveled across the Atlantic for the second U.S. “Scientists of Tomorrow” tour. The students brought energy and enthusiasm as they discussed their work at breakfasts, luncheons, dinners, and “Science on Tap” events. While their research subjects varied from cancer to biological clocks to the human brain, they shared a passion for science – and a desire to spread the spirit of discovery to the general public.

  • Looking Back, Looking Forward
    E-News, January 2015
