With funding from the HHMI-USE grant we
offer a four week, laboratory intensive summer workshop in molecular
biology and biotechnology. High School and Middle School science
teachers from all boroughs of New York City are encouraged to apply. We
accept a mix of new and experienced teachers. Each participant who
achieves a grade of B or better receives college credit or a stipend,
as well as equipment and supply money to outfit their school’s biology
lab. Participating teachers are required to bring their science class
on a trip to The American Museum of Natural History and on a trip to
Hunter College.
