High School Science Day is a free event for high school students in Southern California. Each year, we host 150-250 students and 30-50 teachers and parent volunteers at Salk Institute for all day science talks, lab tours, and a career panel. Students and teachers will meet Salk scientists, learn about current cutting-edge research projects and the fundamental skills necessary for laboratory research.
