USAIC is immensely proud to sponsor academically outstanding students and fellows, especially those from underrepresented minority groups, through The Biomedical Science Careers Program (BSCP) at our annual BioPharma & Healthcare Summit since 2010. The BSCP is dedicated to increasing the representation of underrepresented minority and disadvantaged individuals in all aspects of science and medicine, and USAIC is privileged to support this vital mission.
At our 19th annual BioPharma & Healthcare Summit, we are delighted to introduce these exceptionally talented young leaders who will be participating in the event. For those attending the summit, we kindly request you to take a moment to connect with our young colleagues, engage in a brief conversation, and extend your guidance and mentorship. Your support and encouragement can profoundly impact their professional journeys. Together, let’s continue to nurture diversity and inclusivity in the field of biomedical science and beyond.
