On Feb. 22, students from DeBakey High School for Health Professions disrupted that silence as they toured Baylor for the first open house event since 2019.
Baylor College of Medicine’s Orthotics and Prosthetics Program participated in National STEM Day Nov. 7 by visiting Stafford STEM Magnet Middle School for a half-day of science curriculum based around the use and development of orthotics and prosthetics.
