MGM graduate student Griffin Carter is profiled in this month's School of Medicine EDI Spotlight. Griffin has been involved with the BioCoRE program for several years, crediting the program with being an integral part of his success as a PhD candidate. BioCoRE’s mission is to increase diversity in the biosciences, and Griffin doesn’t take his role lightly as a leader helping to recruit future scientists into the program.
In this month’s EDI Spotlight, Carter discusses the importance of diversity in the sciences, which he says propels new therapies and is essential to finding solutions to medical problems. He also shares how through his research, he’s working to give hope to people with a deadly brain cancer. And we learn about his love of cooking, painting, and helping friends find relief from the stressors of graduate school.
