Calling all #Philly #teachers! eCLOSE Institute is inviting YOU to participate in the 2025 eCLOSE Classroom research program. Students dive into research questions focused on the diseases of highest impact in their school communities, testing foods, nutrients, or environments on fruit fly models of disease. The research is original- meaning no right or wrong answers! Instead, students make new discoveries that matter for the health of their loved ones. Programs align with #Biology, #EnvironmentalScience, #AnatomyPhysiology, #APBio, and other classes, while meeting new #mandates for #research in #school. In 2025, the program is FREE for teachers in the The School District of Philadelphia.... AND new-to-eCLOSE schools will be eligible to win an eCLOSE Classroom Research Laboratory with 8 fully equipped research stations for your students to use year over year. If you are outside #Philadelphia anywhere in the USA and are interested in joining the eCLOSE community, we welcome you! Reach out to learn more. Contact us today!
