This week Aaron Carroll is talking to Elmer Sanders and Matt Allen from Project SEED. Project SEED has opened doors to a career path in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields to hundreds of economically disadvantaged high school junior or senior students living in the Indianapolis area since 1973. Many have gone on to become doctors, nurses, biologists, chemists, researchers, or public health professionals thanks to this summer research program that opens doors typically closed to these students. Hear how this local program — partially funded by the Indiana CTSI — is among the most successful in the nation as a training ground for future careers in STEM and building strong community leaders.
