Future scientists hail from Baltimore City’s Coppin Academy High School

Infinity Bio, Inc., a biotechnology company specializing in antibody reactome profiling, hosted a special community event aimed at engaging and inspiring Baltimore children with an interest in STEM. The event took place on July 22, 2024, at Infinity Bio’s office and laboratory at 6200 Seaforth Street, Baltimore, MD, and featured various activities designed to spark interest in science and technology.

Infinity Bio, founded in 2023, focuses on leveraging its proprietary MIPSA technology to advance antibody reactome profiling, providing crucial insights into disease mechanisms while advancing the development of therapeutics and diagnostics. The company’s core technology was developed at Johns Hopkins University in Dr. H. Benjamin Larman's Laboratory of Precision Immunology. Students from Coppin Academy High School, operated by Coppin State University, had the opportunity to participate in hands-on training, meet scientists, and discover the fascinating field of immunology. The annual event is part of Infinity Bio's ongoing commitment to giving back to the community and supporting educational initiatives.

Dr. Quinhon Scott, Charter School Program Manager of Coppin State University, expressed her gratitude, stating, “We are incredibly thankful to Infinity Bio for providing our students with this invaluable opportunity.
