The Youth BIOlab completed 5 days of intensive workshops with grade 11 and 12 students from across the Winnipeg School Division. Over three weeks, students performed a wide range of lab techniques including a challenging adipogenesis experiment and got to meet with scientists, students and staff from all of our research divisions.
The RBC Youth BIOlab Jeunesse teaching laboratory was built with support from Manitoba Education, RBC, and the St. Boniface Hospital Foundation and opened its doors to students in Spring 2013. The program is delivered in partnership with Manitoba school divisions and with the support of the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) to connect St-Boniface Hospital and Research Centre to classroom learning.
