the Stanley Manne '52 Research Institute™
A state-of-the-art science research program providing complex, science-based education for students.
The Stanley Manne '52 Research Institute™ has no peer at any other New York high school, with over 10,000 square feet of dedicated space for professional-grade science labs comparable to leading research universities and companies. This new building on the Bronx Science campus is the most transformative improvement in the school’s history.
The Stanley Manne '52 Research Institute™ features three multidisciplinary labs and a full complement of auxiliary spaces: a cold room, tissue culture room, microscopy room, sterilization room, animal room and more. The new labs enable students to conduct independent scientific research with cutting-edge equipment and materials in sophisticated, versatile spaces for their research. Here students receive the education, training and support to develop the scientific method, explore their passions, and to prepare for careers in science to make an indelible mark on the world.
