Genetic Counselor Virtual Career Fair
The WSRGN hosted a very successful virtual genetic counseling career fair on October 15, 2020 with over 1,000 students. We have reconfigured the website so you can find information and resources about a career in genetic counseling and links to over 50 genetic counseling training programs. If you are a minority student, you can find information about the Minority Genetic Professionals Network which has mentoring and support activities.
