Featured Student Work

Vignesh Kumar presents research in a poster symposium for Stanford's HB-REX program

Vignesh Kumar, as an undergraduate summer intern through the Human Biology Research Exploration (HB-REX) program, presents his work with Our Voice at the 2023 HB-REX Poster Symposium. His project (i) developed evidence-based principles for community-engaged researchers to disseminate their findings in an innovative way and (ii) highlighted noteworthy success stories from past Our Voice projects. His future work will involve adapting these principles to citizen science by creating dissemination guidelines for Our Voice

Our Voice Impact

"This experience has changed my life.  I see inadequacies everywhere I go as it relates to pedestrian access and safety.  I even stop [at] construction sites to remind them to be considerate of the handicapped in our community.  Thank you all so much for this awareness and empowerment to require change."

~ Pam Jiner, GirlTrek Advocacy Leader, Denver CO
