GEMSTEM Events

Annual Activities and Events

Our aim is to showcase the ongoing research projects of scholars and provide them with a chance to develop their presentation skills. This is crucial in demonstrating to students the role of a scientist engaged in aging research. During our retreat, students are allotted time to present their research to USC faculty, peers, and other professionals from the STEM field. Scholars also participate in career development activities and professional workshops such as: Writing a CV, Interviewing Tips, and Time Management

This year our GEMSTEM retreat took place at the Courtyard in Downtown Long Beach on April 1-2, 2023.
