Massachusetts STEM Week 2025





This year’s theme for Massachusetts STEM Week is “STEM Starts Now” — a reminder that it’s never too early or too late to explore science, technology, engineering, and math.

The Gloucester Marine Genomics Institute, Inc.'s Gloucester Biotechnology Academy is putting that message into action.

The Academy opens doors for students from all backgrounds to launch rewarding careers in the life sciences — no prior experience or college degree required — and thanks to their commitment to access, tuition and fees are completely waived for all participants.

I’ve had the privilege of visiting the Academy during past MA STEM Week celebrations to see firsthand the innovation, dedication, and opportunity that thrives there thanks to the passion and dedication of the GMGI team.
