COVID-19 Update: You may find a free virtual collection of resources and laboratory simulations specifically built for ABE on LabXchange. We have also developed a set of additional resources that aim to help teachers and students as they explore science online rather than face-to-face, including a new online curriculum exploring the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Amgen Biotech Experience (ABE) is an innovative science education program that empowers teachers to bring biotechnology to their classrooms. ABE provides teacher professional development, curriculum materials, and research-grade equipment and supplies to secondary schools.
