Each month UHN STEM Pathways recognizes the outreach work of our volunteers. For December, we acknowledge and thank Guijin Li and Mack Hancock for their outstanding contribution to youth outreach. Guijin has been doing outreach at KITE for years, often acting as a tour guide, and she is also currently planning in-person classroom workshops. Mack was a panelist for our Sports and Rehab STEM Talk, jumping in at the last minute when we had an urgent request for support. He's also created a fantastic educational video on concussion awareness. Thank you for your contributions!
