About the Program
The APS K-12 Minority Outreach Fellowship seeks to foster communication
between minority graduate and postdoctoral students and middle/high school
minority life sciences students. The program capitalizes on the
relationships that the NIDDK Minority Travel Fellows Program and Porter
Physiology Fellowship program builds with minority graduate and postdoctoral
students and the relationships that the Frontiers in Physiology and
Explorations in Biomedicine programs build with minority middle/high school
teachers. Program activities include year-long outreach fellowships for
senior graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to visit K-12 classrooms,
help conduct teacher professional development workshops, and attend
scientific meetings.
