The Illumina Foundation believes that educating SAT students and sparking their interest in genomics is a critical first step to realizing our vision of improving human health around the world.

We encourage teachers to bring genomics into the classroom in dynamic ways to ensure the next generation has the knowledge, skills, and abilities to pursue purposeful careers in this field and help us unlock the power of the genome.
