As America ages the healthcare industry will be increasingly challenged on how to train and prepare professionals to care for older patients and for the unique and complicated attention they often require. The UCLA School of Nursing "Young Scholars" Program encourages students to pursue academic careers with a focus on older adults. Students accepted into the program are matched with faculty mentors and participate in a variety of projects including co-authorship of research or clinically focused articles, podium and poster research presentations, and involvement as paid research assistants on faculty research grants. Here, four students in the program discuss why they became "Young Scholars." Learn more about the UCLA School of Nursing program by visiting http://nursing.ucla.edu/.
