Innovating Health. Empowering Minds.
The Future Kings Biomedical Sciences Program introduces students to medical research, biotechnology, health sciences, and bioethics through hands-on labs and data-driven inquiry.
Students explore how science, technology, and entrepreneurship intersect to improve human health.
The Challenge
Healthcare and biomedical research suffer from persistent gaps in diversity. Many students lack early access to lab experiences, scientific mentorship, and applied research opportunities.
This limits both innovation and equity in health outcomes.
The Solution
Future Kings Biomedical Sciences combines:
● Lab-based experimentation
● Data analysis and research projects
● Bioethics and health equity discussions
● Presentation and scientific communication
Students learn how science has a real-world impact.
Academic & Industry Alignment
The Future Kings Biomedical Sciences Program delivers college-level biomedical concepts in an age-appropriate, hands-on format. The curriculum has been approved by the American Council on Education (ACE), allowing eligible students to earn college credit upon successful completion.
The program is developed in collaboration with industry and research partners, including Athari BioSciences, and has received grant support from organizations such as the Illumina Foundation and GO Virginia to strengthen the life sciences workforce pipeline.
