Bio-Rad recently opened up our Pleasanton location to San Francisco Bay Area high school students participating in a weeklong Bio-Tech Summer Academy. The event was organized in collaboration with Bay Area LEEDS, an organization Bio-Rad has sponsored for over a decade in support of the work they do to develop tomorrow’s STEM workforce.  

"...anything that can be informative for a young person, I love to do it."

- Darren Link, VP, Digital Biology Group

More than 25 students visited our Pleasanton office on July 27 for a tour of the facility, keynote speakers, a career roundtable, and student presentations judged by Bio-Rad employees. For many students, this was their first introduction to biotechnology.  

“I haven’t taken a bio course or anything in high school, so it was fun to learn a little bit more.," said Darsh Doshi. "I was mostly here to explore the subjects, and we also got to do a lot of experiments; it was fun to try something new.”

As part of their assignment for the week, students were tasked with delivering a “pitch” to a team of investors (industry judges) after considering the benefits, disadvantages, and societal effects of CRISPR, a revolutionary gene editing tool. The assignment was designed for students to weigh the pros and cons of a real world biotechnology topic affecting our society.

One of the keynote speakers, Darren Link, VP of Bio-Rad's Digital Biology Group R&D Team, says that the students brought an exciting energy to the Pleasanton campus. “We are all on our own journey, and anything that can be informative for a young person, I love to do it,” he says. “I love to see their excitement at this stage of their life. It’s fantastic.”
