“ The UH Cancer Center high school summer program was uniquely invaluable . In five short days , I was mentored by leading professionals in the sector of oncology who possessed rich perspectives and shared a great appreciation for being in their positions . From working with genomics data to practicing small-scale epidemiology , the advancing world of research became increasingly clear to me . As a high school student , the people I ’ ve met through this program have served as sources of inspiration and are connections that I will cherish for years to come .”
