New partnership with the world’s largest medical center launches students into exciting biotech careers
A groundbreaking partnership is opening doors for Houston students to join one of the fastest-growing industries in the world: biotechnology. BioPath at the Texas Medical Center, a trailblazing initiative, is partnering with Learning Undefeated to connect students with hands-on experiences and real-world applications in biomanufacturing, preparing them to excel in this thriving field.
Skill Building on the Move
In collaboration with BioPath at TMC, Learning Undefeated is set to bring its state-of-the-art mobile STEM laboratory to thousands of Houston-area students. Starting in spring 2025, this traveling science lab will roll onto local high school campuses, immersing students in cutting-edge biotechnology, bioengineering, and synthetic biology. Through interactive, curriculum-integrated experiments, students will explore how biomanufacturing transforms industries like medicine, advanced manufacturing, and biotechnology.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. The program extends beyond the classroom, offering afterschool career exploration sessions and exclusive tours of TMC’s world-renowned Innovation Factory, where ideas shape the future of healthcare. “Texas is becoming a biotech powerhouse, and Houston is at the heart of it,” said Brian Gaines, CEO of Learning Undefeated. “This partnership with Texas Medical Center is more than just education—it’s empowerment. We’re equipping students with the skills, confidence, and curiosity they need to succeed in the biotech careers flourishing in their own community.”
Fueling the Biotech Boom
Houston’s biomanufacturing industry is exploding, with demand for skilled professionals surging to meet rapid innovation. As the Texas Medical Center—a global leader in life sciences research and clinical trials—continues to grow, a critical need for local talent is emerging.
BioPath at TMC is answering the call, offering students unparalleled access to the tools, knowledge, and mentorship they need to step confidently into STEM careers. By combining cutting-edge science education with career readiness, this initiative is not only helping students shape their futures but also positioning Houston as a life sciences leader on the global stage.
With this bold collaboration, the next generation of innovators, scientists, and biotech leaders is being built right here in Houston.
