20 years of a unique summer opportunity for motivated Arizona high school students with a strong interest in interdisciplinary sciences to work with top University of Arizona faculty on research projects that address the world's greatest challenges. "The KEYS program is the most progressive that I have seen in this state to allow students to get real life experience through the research process."
-Jimmy Wojcik, Department of Education, State Supervisor, Biosciences

“I thoroughly enjoyed my lab experience and learned more than I could've hoped for. This program has peaked my interest in pharmacology/toxicology and I will be working in my lab for the rest of the summer -- maybe even throughout the school year!”
-Jonathan Ferng, KEYS 2009 Intern

"One of my fears was spending years studying something I wasn't passionate about. This is where KEYS Summer Internship literally changed my life."
-Juliet Kasaya, KEYS 2008 Intern

"The KEYS program made a profound difference."
- Dr. Andrew Lettes, Pueblo High School Teacher

"I truly believe that KEYS has steered me in the right direction towards fulfilling my educational and professional goals."
-Daniel Sotelo, KEYS 2007 Intern

“Friday I went home able to say I had a truly enjoyable summer…”
-Patrick McCarty, KEYS 2009 Intern

On July 17, we celebrated the 20th Annual KEYS Research Showcase! 🎉

After seven weeks of hands-on research, the 2026 KEYS interns presented their work during a poster session, received certificates recognizing their accomplishments and celebrated with more than 400 family members, mentors, alumni and supporters.

Thank you to U.S. Rep. Adelita Grijalva for visiting with students and delivering an inspiring keynote about supporting the next generation of scientists.

The celebration also featured remarks from KEYS alumni Salika Dunatunga, Joshua Dusek and Mariam Rana, who represented the program's early, middle and recent years and reflected on how KEYS helped shape their scientific journeys.

To the KEYS class of 2026, we are so proud of you and look forward to your future achievements! 💙
