A Life in Science is a series we've been working on with local storytellers and filmmakers alongside students and graduates of the BULLS Life Sciences Academy. Made in Durham, Durham Technical Community College, Durham County Government, and North Carolina Biotechnology Center (NCBiotech) are core partners in BULLS along with many community-based organizations. - Justus' story of acceptance conveys an emotional side of A Life in Science: the nuances of life experiences that push and pull people toward and away from opportunities. There's #gratitude in receiving and giving back along this #pathway. That's the "why" component of the BULLS story, Made in Durham's defined Purpose: "We believe all Durham youth and young adults should have access and opportunity to participate in the area’s economic prosperity." Thanks to ?Saleem Reshamwala? aka #kidEthnic for visuals and Justus Hampton, CPT for sharing your story with us. #economicmobility #biowork #durhamnc #lifeinscience - Watch the story on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/ev4fe4n3

If you haven't seen the current (and beautiful) issue of Durham Magazine, check it out. Inside you'll find a (re)introduction to the Made in Durham BULLS Life Sciences Academy and a separate shout-out to our BULLS educational partner, Durham Technical Community College, and specifically their Foundation that makes so much possible for students. It's worth a look now, but wait there's more! You'll see more BULLS stories in the coming issues profiling Durham's young residents building lives in science! Additional props to Durham County Government and North Carolina Biotechnology Center (NCBiotech) for their support of the BULLS initiative.

In case you missed it: Last week, the Building Better Regions Community of Practice kicked off our first session in our new Emerging Practices Series, featuring insights from our friends and Accelerate NC Coalition members at Made in Durham / the BULLS Life Sciences Academy. Made in Durham shared how they’re creating new pathways to prosperity through the BULLS Life Sciences Academy by identifying and addressing gaps in Durham’s Education-to-Career system via community, youth, alumni, and corporate engagement, as well as many other insights that you can find in our YouTube recording.
