Education at Barrow: Gia's Story

At 14, Gia Patel had a vibrant passion for life and a strong desire to learn. That was - until a medical emergency threatened to shatter her dreams. After receiving life-saving surgery at Barrow, Gia returned to Barrow Neurological Institute, only this time to research the same condition that almost took her life.
Funded through philanthropy, Dr. Rita Sattler's Barrow Summer High School Internship Program and Undergraduate Internship Program provide students with opportunities to conduct hands-on research, participate in physician-led seminars, engage in technology workshops, and attend careers panel discussions.
