VSSA Career Seminars

Due to Covid-19 in 2020, the Vanderbilt Summer Science Academy developed a seminar series focused on individuals on different post-undergraduate paths (PhD, MD/PhD, and MD). These seminars are available to any undergraduate interested in pursuing one of these paths, regardless of if they applied to the VSSA or not!
