UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO, BOULDER

June | CU Boulder Students Teach Underrepresented High School Students About Antimicrobial Resistance
CU Boulder graduate students helped with a program called the Pre-Collegiate Development Program (PCDP) by teaching about antimicrobial resistance with hands-on activities.

PCDP brings underrepresented high school juniors to the CU Boulder campus for a 3-week session to experience life on a college campus. With classes on scientific writing, research, and presentations, students who may not otherwise have considered attending college are left better prepared for their futures.

Two graduate students in CO-ARC co-founder Dr. Anushree Chatterjee's lab, Dana Stamo and Jocelyn Campos, taught their students about DNA, cell membranes, evolution, and antibiotics. Students walked away from this class understanding quantum dot technologies and how they can be used to revolutionize treatment for multi-drug resistant infections.
