By providing hands-on exposure to science and science careers, we foster scientific curiosity in young people and lay the groundwork for a diverse next generation of STEM leaders our world so profoundly needs.” Susan Alexander Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary of Biogen The Biogen Community Lab is an amazing space that I was introduced to in 2018 and loved it so much that I kept coming back throughout the years. In 2018, I took part in the Adventures in Biotechnology summer program, and that summer program made me fall in love with STEM and sparked my interest in biotechnology as a career. I am so thankful for the connections I made and the vast amount of knowledge that I have gained while taking part in activities at Community Lab!” Esteban Tarazona Former Community Lab student participant I am so happy that the Community Lab has given me the opportunity to combine my passion for teaching with the work I perform developing life-saving medicines.” Yik Lam Senior Engineer at Biogen and Community Lab volunteer Testimonials The Lemelson-MIT Program has had the good fortune of working with the Biogen Community Lab since 2020 when we launched the Biotech in Action program. Since that time, more than 1,400 high school students, many of whom are underrepresented in STEM, have benefited from our unique approach to introduce them to biotechnology, invention and the college and career paths available to them. It has been incredibly rewarding to see so many students fully engaged in powerful online learning while seeking a greater understanding of an industry and considering how they will improve the lives of others through discovery and invention!” Stephanie Couch Executive Director, Lemelson-MIT Program
