The program offers a unique opportunity for high school students to gain hands-on experience and mentorship from world-class scientists at a premier biomedical research institute, culminating in a $1,000 scholarship upon graduation.
The TGen Bioscience Leadership Academy is a highly selective two-week summer program for approximately 20 Arizona high school students, designed to immerse them in the world of biomedical research and precision medicine. Participants engage in hands-on activities such as lab shadowing, experimental design, and exploring clinical trials and bioethics. The curriculum delves into various diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and neurological disorders. Students gain valuable professional STEM skills, including science communication, public speaking, teamwork, and networking, all under the direct mentorship of TGen scientists and staff. The program aims to inspire future bioscience leaders and provides a foundational understanding of the biomedical field, demystifying complex scientific concepts and sparking curiosity for STEM pathways in higher education.
A typical day involves hands-on lab shadowing, engaging in experimental design, and learning about various diseases and the impact of translational research and precision medicine.
This program is best for ambitious Arizona high school students (rising juniors and seniors, aged 16+) with a passion for science and an interest in pursuing careers in biomedical research or medicine.
