Not only did St. Boniface Hospital Research’s RBC Youth BIOlab break attendance records with more than 4800 through the BIOlab, and another 1500 in schools – this year saw the program reach a significant milestone for outreach at St. Boniface Hospital Research.
Since full time outreach began in 2005, the program has now seen over 50,000 students from across Manitoba, with 18,000 of those through the Youth BIOlab since opening in 2013! And with the installation of videoconferencing equipment with funds from the St. Boniface Hospital Foundation that number will increase to expand to northern and remote communities in the 2017-2018 school year.
Congratulations to program Director Steve Jones and teacher Meghan Kynoch!
