On this episode of #ShareScience, we spoke with Jared Oenick, a senior at the University of North Georgia.

Jared is one of 10 winners of the inaugural Scientist.com STEM Research NIL Award. In this episode, he gives us a brief look at what his inspiration for science is, as well as where he plans to take his career in the future. He recounts how having a personalized experience with renal disease not only encouraged him, but gave him the clarity needed to find solutions to the problems facing many patients today.

As an award winner, Jared is working with Scientist.com as a brand ambassador. Read more about the award winners and the STEM Research NIL Award itself here.
