What teachers are saying about BioQuest and the BioQuest Academy:

“Seattle Biomedical Research Institute is a class act indeed, opening the eyes of not only my students, but the parent chaperones who accompanied us. You have more informed voters as a direct result, and that can't be anything but good!”
– Kathleen, high school teacher

"While not all of my student are headed into science careers, visiting Seattle BioMed DEFINITELY opened the eyes of for many. A few of my students were rushing home to tell their folks that they wanted to persue a career in global health/biomedical fields and will apply for the BioQuest Academy! Thank you for youur infectious enthusiasm!– Brenda, high school teacher

“Thank YOU all for the incredible day at Seattle Biomedical Research Institute. I just had two students coming into my room today after school hoping that I would write them a letter of recommendation for the BioQuest Academy and for a summer internship. They were truly inspired! You all were so great about keeping students engaged and making sure everyone could see and hear (which is so important on the tour!). It sounded like they were asking each of you questions which shows that they were engaged and excited about what you are doing there. Thank you again for this opportunity. I hope we can return again in the future.“ —Maggy, high school teacher

“The educational outreach that you do is amazing and it is important. I don't have to tell you that you are reaching out to the future PhDs. Seeing what you do, getting a chance to do something hands on, having the opportunity to ask questions to those actually doing the research provides invaluable and practical experiences that we simply cannot provide in the classroom” —Stephen, high school teacher
