The grant will help increase access for underrepresented students to industry-leading technology and paid internships to prepare them for careers in drug discovery.
- The grant will help increase access for underrepresented students to industry-leading technology and paid internships to prepare them for careers in drug discovery.
- Schrödinger and two academic collaborators City Tech and LaGuardia will use the funding to launch a collaborative initiative, Introducing Molecular Modeling Experiences to underRepresented StudEnts (IMMERSE).
- “The IMMERSE initiative affords an unprecedented environment to empower associate degree students with molecular modeling skills that are key for the workforce.
- We are delighted to work closely with City Tech and Schrödinger to improve educational pathways and provide career opportunities in the biotechnology area.”
