We asked our alumni what the GEP meant to them. Here’s what Kiersten Wienclawski had to say.

#GEPstudents #GEPCUREs #GenomicsEducation
Q: “In one sentence, what did the GEP mean to you?” R: “The GEP meant working with a supportive, caring, and passionate team, eager to help students and share in their love for science and research. The GEP played a very great role in my life, and I wouldn’t have traded any of it for the world!” ~Kiersten Wienclawski. Learn more at thegep.org.

What makes the GEP special? Hear what GEP alumna Kiersten Wienclawski has to say.
#GEPstudents #GEPCUREs #GenomicsEducation #STEMEducation
Q: “What’s one moment in GEP where you realized you were doing real science?” R: “Probably the first time I did a project as a student and began working on my very own gene, not just a practice gene, and when I learned that my final product of the research project was going to be reviewed and published by the GEP community.” ~Kiersten Wienclawski.
