Genetic Engineering and Society (GES) Center

Our Story

Support the Genetic Engineering and Society (GES) Center at NC State in shaping interdisciplinary scholars dedicated to responsible innovation in biotechnology. We unite diverse perspectives, bridging science with public values while remaining unbiased by declining funds from biotech and advocacy groups. Your donation supports GES Graduate Minor Fellowships, offering tuition assistance and a generous stipend to graduate students from varied disciplines as they explore the ethical, societal, and environmental dimensions of emerging technologies. With your help, these future leaders gain the tools for inclusive research, thoughtful engagement and impactful leadership. Give now to empower tomorrow’s change-makers and ensure a balanced approach to biotechnology’s promise and challenges.
