Our talented STEM Magnet students at Lithia Springs High School are currently immersed in hands-on learning through our Bio Lab program through a partnership with Atlanta Technical College and Georgia State University, where they are performing real-world DNA testing and analysis. This exciting opportunity allows students to apply classroom knowledge in practical lab settings, deepening their understanding of genetic science and biotechnology.
In addition to their lab work, these students will embark on an industry tour this April to visit one of Georgia’s leading biopharmaceutical companies. This groundbreaking company holds the distinction of being the first biopharmaceutical firm to receive FDA approval for an innovative immunotherapy treatment. Their therapy harnesses the power of personalized cellular treatments, utilizing a patient’s own immune cells to combat disease.
This upcoming tour will give students a rare inside look at the cutting-edge processes and research driving advancements in biotechnology — an inspiring step toward future careers in science and medicine.
