The 2022-2023 STEM Research Grant recipients hail from 24 states and the U.S. commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. Priority consideration is given to educators who serve students from low-income communities, including students of underrepresented and underserved backgrounds. All recipients teach at the middle and/or high school levels and the majority of this year’s cohort are based at public, Title 1 schools. About 90% of the students served are from low-income communities and 76% are from underrepresented groups, including American Indian, Alaska Native, Black and Latinx demographics.

The 2023 Regeneron STS top 300 scholars not only excel in STEM, they also flex their creativity outside of the lab. From time spent in the water to competitive table tennis, these bright young minds are sure to change the world!
