Young Women In Bio (YWIB) is a nationwide, nonprofit volunteer organization that encourages young women and girls to explore opportunities, education, and careers in STEM.

Our mission at YWIB-San Diego is to create programs and events that ignite girls’ curiosity about the sciences while nurturing an entrepreneurial spirit. Our events are geared towards encouraging middle and high school girls to consider the life sciences as a career choice by giving them exposure to different aspects of the thriving Greater San Diego biotechnology ecosystem. 

Our goal is to connect the diverse Greater San Diego community of young women with the robust and innovative science community right at our backdoor. 

YWIB-San Diego is always open to collaborating, partnering, or volunteering with local organizations and sponsors committed to STEM education and who support the prosperous professional future of young women. 

If your organization is interested in sponsoring a YWIB-San Diego event, or if you would like additional information, please contact SanDiegoYWIB@womeninbio.org.
