Congratulations to our Pediatrics Internship Program at Stanford (PIPS) students!

On July 29, 2022, our 27 PIPS students presented their final research project during a Poster Symposium, where they summarized the research projects they worked on this summer with their mentors and research labs.

We are appreciative of our faculty, mentors, and staff for their support and for helping us shape the next generation of scientists and physicians. We are so proud of our PIPS students!
