YPIE Regeneron Science Research Program

​

YPIE provides a rigorous Science Research Program through a generous grant from Regeneron.  We currently have 75+ extremely dedicated and hard-working 10th-12th grade students from across the Yonkers Public high schools who are conducting original science research. 

 

Our YPIE Regeneron Science Research Scholars research and collect data on their STEM topic of choice during this three-year program and earn up to 12 college credits.  Our students are bright, talented, and highly responsible, and are already starting to participate and win awards in regional science fairs, including WESEF, Regeneron STS, JSHS, among others.

 

Students spend their first year in the program becoming “experts” on the precise topic of their choice -- whether they are studying a single protein pathway or how listening to K-POP can decrease anxiety.

 

After receiving approval, students begin reaching out to professionals in their field, then spend their final two years in the program designing, conducting, and presenting the results of their novel experiment.

​

With the support of Regeneron, YPIE replicated its Science Research program to students in Jersey City in Fall 2024 and will launch this program in Nashville in Spring 2025.
