Michelle S. Johnson; Kathy C. Haynie; Lalita A. Shevde; J. Michael Wyss – Journal of STEM Outreach, 2025
A lack of academic and social readiness limits the successful transition to high school and college for many students from populations historically underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) and historically underrepresented groups in biomedical careers (HUG). Also, many families from underrepresented groups share little…
