A POSTCARD FROM
Stanford Young Scientist Institute
May 25–30, 2026 · Stanford, CA
Dear reader,
I spent a week at Stanford University with my P20 IES Pathways research group through the UTSA–Stanford University Pathways Summer Institute. Research sessions, faculty talks, graduate student panels, and class visits gave me a closer look at educational research and what pursuing a Ph.D. can look like.
The moments I’m keeping
Visited EDUC 218: Topics in Cognition and Learning with Dr. Bruce McCandliss, exploring how AI can enhance human cognition. Joined the Journeys to and through Graduate School panel and conversations with graduate students. Explored campus and San Francisco, tried new food, and made memories with fellow students.
Good company
