The National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS) teamed up with St. Jude Children’s Research Children’s Research Hospital and ALSAC to bring a group of our members to the St. Jude campus in Memphis, TN. This 1.5 day event allowed NSHSS member to explore all aspects of careers in healthcare and research.

Members enjoyed a behind the scene campus and hospital tour followed by a pizza party. On Saturday, October 26, the event continued with inspiring workshop sessions like Global Outreach, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital Graduate School of Bio Medical Sciences, and a special speech from a patient.
