Overview

LifeScience Links is a summer professional learning experience for seventh-grade life science educators.

LifeScience Links is a professional learning experience that provides seventh-grade life science teachers updated content knowledge, engaging strategies, and authentic lab experiences. Held on the campus of HudsonAlpha, a leading genomics research institute, educators leave the workshop equipped to link Course of Study Standards to real-world biotech applications and careers.

LifeScience Links will be held June 14-17, 2021, at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology.*

Eligible educators will spend four full-days at HudsonAlpha, focusing on connecting content to biotech careers and learning from leading researchers, scientists and educators.

*HudsonAlpha seeks to provide a safe environment for all our participants and team members. We are closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation in our region to make a best-informed decision about holding in-person programming for Summer 2021. We will notify our participants if we are unable to host face-to-face activities.

Across all of our programs, HudsonAlpha will follow best-practices for gathering safely. These practices may change based on recommendations from health officials, but currently include reducing overall capacity, social distancing, masking, frequent symptom/temperature checks, and completion of our COVID-19 Certifications and Expectations Form. Failure to comply with safety precautions will result in removal from the program.
