About City of Irvine
“Science education is incredibly important in our society today, but participation in science programs and activities outside school is sometimes limited or exclusive. Imagiscience is the key to bridging that gap – connecting students to professionals and exposing them to the world of science through their interactive programs. Their programs are unique because they are proposed and executed by students themselves! Imagiscience is an innovative organization that aims to make a difference in the science education, and I strongly support its cause and commend Homin and his team for their vision and dedication. Imagiscience is an organization that has an immense potential to transform science education in today’s society.”

About Edwards Lifesciences
“I believe that science is going to work every day knowing that you can change the world, maybe it is a small insight, or a grand vision, but nevertheless it is contribution to the larger body of work that helps mankind. This process of innovation: it means failing most of the time, maybe for years. And failing is OK, as long as you are learning from it, it is the process of discovery. The “aha moments” are accumulations of years of insight and education. Imagiscience is approaching the problems in today’s science education, a significant challenge in America. It boldly challenges America’s education through recognition that science is more often than not uninteresting to our younger generation. Through its programs and activities, Imagiscience aspires to increase scientific interest and engagement in our future generation. I’m excited to follow Homin and his founding team and look forward to their growth.”
