Site
Explorations
BioQuest's
specialized site explorations are the hallmark of SBRI's science
education program. During the school day, a class of up to 32
students visits BioQuest for an introduction to global health.
Following a biosafety overview, students take a tour of SBRI,
learning about infectious disease research from SBRI's
scientists. A one-hour hands-on science activity in the BioQuest
Learning Lab rounds out the day.

Teacher
Workshops
BioQuest has designed a series of workshops for teachers, with
emphasis on global health and infectious disease research. These
workshops provide teachers with in-depth experiences to
translate their learning back into the classroom so that they
can support students in meeting state science education learning
requirements.
