Young Scientist Lab Immersion Program

A research program specially designed for high school students.

Learn microscopy, DNA extraction, experimental design, and scientific data analysis inside an industrial laboratory environment.

A hands-on laboratory experience for high school students interested in life sciences, medicine, and biotechnology.

This immersive program allows students to step inside a real research laboratory environment and learn how scientists design experiments, generate data, and present scientific findings.

Over five intensive days, participants will gain practical laboratory exposure: from microscopy and DNA extraction to experimental design and data visualization, while working in small groups under expert guidance.

What You'll Learn

  • Real laboratory environment experience

  • Hands-on microscopy, DNA extraction and PCR

  • Experimental design and quality control thinking

  • Data analysis and scientific presentation training

  • Final research presentation and certificate of completion

Students will leave the program with a clearer understanding of how scientific research works in real laboratories.
