We're very grateful for our partnership with @illuminainc to deliver the Illumina Genomic Discoveries (IGD) program. IGD is a remarkably impactful program, empowering teachers to create work-based genomics learning, and exposing students to the biotech and life science industry. 🔬
We greatly appreciate the dedicated educators utilizing IGD in their classrooms. We recently sat down to speak with one of those educators, Jorgina Hall from Otay Ranch High School, to learn more about IGD's impact on her and her students.
Check out the link in our bio to read more about this incredible teacher and program!👩🏫💪

Last month we brought students from the Health & Medicine pathway at Lincoln High School to tour Kura Oncology, getting an up-close look at the work being done to develop treatments for different types of cancers.
Students were guided through the campus and labs, learning about the different kinds of jobs involved with bringing new cancer treatments into practice. The day wrapped up with a career panel featuring an array of professionals in different fields on the Kura Oncology team.
Thank you to Kura Oncology for opening your doors and inspiring the next generation of leaders!

In celebration of DNA Day, @illuminainc spent the month of April bringing their Future is Bright campaign to classrooms across San Diego and the Bay Area as well as hosting a central hub of free learning resources at dnaday.org.
Over the course of the month, Illumina volunteers attended 9 career chats across 7 schools, connecting with 9 teachers, 18 classes, and 577 students.
Thank you to Illumina for investing in the next generation of life science talent and for making this year’s DNA Day one to remember! 🧬

Earlier this month we hosted a career panel at El Camino High School, where students in a CTE Biotechnology II class heard directly from professionals working in STEAM. 🔬
With student moderators leading the conversation, panelists shared their career journeys and explained to students that the path into biotech rarely looks the same twice.
Moments like this give students not just knowledge, but visibility into the opportunities available to them as they prepare to enter the workforce. ✨

DNA day is April 25, but Illumina is celebrating the whole month of April by hosting a central hub with engaging activities for students. 🧬
They created dnaday.org as a one-stop hub for educators who are preparing for DNA Day and ongoing genomics lessons. If you’re interested in classroom ready DNA activities, virtual field trips, career exploration videos, and other educator resources, then be sure to go check out dnaday.org!
