CCAPP/CSTEP Students Shine at 9th Annual Regional Expo
The City College of New York Division of Science CCAPP/CSTEP program proudly celebrated student achievement at the 9th Annual Bronx and Manhattan C/STEP Regional Expo, held on March 14, 2026, at John Jay College of Criminal Justice.
Students Ken Pardo (junior), Mauricio Diaz (senior), Alisa Fontanez (senior), and Arjun Dibya (senior) showcased their outstanding research, demonstrating the academic excellence and dedication fostered within the program.
The event also highlighted the continued success and engagement of CCAPP/CSTEP alumni and community members. Alumni Sabrina Jezerca, who will begin medical school at the Brown University Warren Alpert Medical School this August, and Raghd Ahmed, currently a Clinical research coordinator at Columbia University, returned to serve as judges. They were joined by former CCAPP staff member Kai Gilchrist, now a lecturer at the Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership, and Shuhebur Rahman, a former CCAPP/CSTEP student who has since returned as an Academic Advisor.
Give Kids A Smile Day
We would like to spotlight the Pre-Dental Honor Society (PDHS) for their incredible efforts on Give Kids A Smile Day, where they helped care for hundreds of children in the community.
Give Kids A Smile (GKAS) is a national initiative that provides children in underserved areas with free oral health education, screenings, and basic dental care, while also raising awareness about ongoing disparities in access to dental services.
Through PDHS, students are encouraged to participate in this meaningful event, gaining valuable community service experience and early clinical exposure. No prior dental experience is required, making it an accessible and impactful opportunity for all involved.
Thank you to the Pre-Dental Honor Society for making a difference and giving back in such a meaningful way!
