The UF Health Cancer Institute Ambassadors Program is helping graduate students build mentorship and communication skills while introducing younger students to cancer research through outreach, workshops and training programs.
“The program connects graduate students with opportunities to lead educational events, present research and mentor students ranging from high school to undergraduate levels,” said Dietmar Siemann, Ph.D., associate director for education and training at the UF Health Cancer Institute. “The ambassadors are an essential component of all of our student and community outreach activities. They engage personally and naturally to demonstrate the exciting possibilities of science in ways that make younger students feel at ease.”
