The Rochester Young Scientist Club is a partnership between the University of Rochester Medical Center and The Rochester City School district, serving 3 schools and approximately 60 kids from underrepresented or disadvantaged backgrounds. Students are bused from their homes to the medical school for 9 Saturday sessions from 10am-12pm between October and March. Each session is led by a team of University of Rochester graduate students and medical students, and involves a science lesson and hands on experiment.
