Dear Bio-1 Community,

Welcome to the June Bio-1 Buzz, our e-newsletter to connect you to the Central New Jersey WIRED (Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development) region’s activities.  This month, we feature stories by and about students.  We feature a student reporter, a recent graduate from the first graduating class from Monmouth County Biotechnology High School, Kate Chechko, who wrote four of this month’s Buzz articles.  We also introduce a new online-forum created by a group of three Rutgers students, two doing summer internships with Bio-1, Jungki Kim and Arnav Bajpay, and an incoming freshman, Eugene Choi from Biotech High School.  Please be sure to make use of and share our internship and job matching portal to connect people with jobs!

As always, please visit our website and don’t forget to pass along the buzz.

Sincerely,
Mary Ellen Clark
Executive Director, WIRED Bio-1
