About the program

Young Women In Bio (YWIB) launched the YWIB Ambassador program in 2020 for students interested in championing and supporting the organization’s efforts to create educational and leadership opportunities in STEM for young women. Each school year, YWIB welcomes approximately 20 students to the new class of Ambassadors.
