A new game titled “Portal to Possibilities: Biotech Edition,” developed by New Mexico State University and the University of Connecticut Extension, introduces young players to various science careers within biotechnology. Players can explore ten different biotech roles by engaging in authentic tasks that reflect the daily responsibilities of professionals in these fields, from research labs to environmental work. The game aims to inspire youth by fostering confidence and critical thinking skills, linking education with exploration in STEM careers. This initiative is part of the 4-H Biotech Games series and was supported by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture. For more information, visit 4hbiotechgames.org.
