THE WAY PODCAST: Episode 3, 'Using What You Got' with Casey Carter
By Ryan Clark
CHS Communications Director
Casey Carter grew up an only child in a single-parent home just off the University of South Carolina’s campus in Columbia, S.C.
But a visit to Lexington let her know that she would be a Wildcat. She was a prized recruit of the academic kind — already a scientist, she’d been developing a new kind of football helmet since middle school, one that could help reduce concussions.
UK’s College of Health Sciences, as well as the Sports Medicine Research Institute, helped provide a new home for her interests, while continuing to guide her to a future career as a healthcare provider.
Welcome to the second episode of The Way Podcast, the official podcast of the College of Health Sciences, where we highlight the amazing people that make our college special. Here at UK, the College of Health Sciences is your Gateway to the Health Professions.
