In engaging students and seeking to inspire an understanding of JGI’s role in advancing the energy and environmental genomics research frontier, the goal is to inspire more students to enter the STEM workforce, developing a more diverse and inclusive pool of talent. Among JGI’s education activities that have evolved independently from those administered through the Berkeley Lab Workforce Development & Education Office are the JGI-UC Merced Genomics Internship, and at the high school level, a partnership between JGI and the nonprofit Biotech Partners to host Antioch High School students.
