Thanks for partner support in 2026

SSP International wants to thank the sponsors, partners, and organizations that have extended generous support in 2026. Their support ensures that we can continue to increase the reach and impact of our programming, expanding access to transformative STEM experiences for students of every background.

Moderna Charitable Foundation

The cell biology program at University of Wisconsin-River Falls for the 2026 Summer Science Program was supported by a contribution from the Moderna Charitable Foundation to support financial aid costs for low-income students.

The Moderna Charitable Foundation supports organizations and causes that create long-lasting change for a healthier world. They are closing the opportunity gap for the next generation by advancing STEM education and innovation.

NASA Indiana Space Grant Consortium

A NASA Indiana Space Grant Consortium (INSGC) grant supported Summer Science Program teaching assistants for the 2026 biochemistry programs at Indiana University Bloomington and Purdue University.

The INSGC is part of the National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program and serves as Indiana’s connection to NASA-related education, research, and funding opportunities. Its mission is to develop and promote programs aligned with NASA’s strategic priorities while strengthening collaboration among academia, industry, and state and local partners.

SSPI also thanks Plasmidsaurus for supporting the 2026 bacterial genomics programs at Albion College, Chadron State College, College of Wooster, Lehigh University, Purdue University, and University of Guelph.
