John Doleman, a former program manager at Control Data, the prime contractor for the NASA Phase A Space Station Design, founded Seeds of Change in 2010 to “Change the Landscape of Secondary Science Education.”
His vision is to develop programs that catapult students directly into the research discovery process well before they are in graduate school or college. By partnering with multiple world-renowned university professors that recognize the need to galvanize interest in the sciences through hands-on, original research Seeds of Change laid the groundwork for today’s multi-faceted science research immersion programs at Seeds of Change.
These programs deeply engage students in tropical field research, ecology, marine research, and comparative genetics (bioinformatics).

Seeds of Change, Inc. (SOC) is a Minnesota 501(C)(3) non-profit corporation with a mission to influence high school students to pursue science-related careers by immersing them in original research experiences that ignite in each student a passion for science.
SOC programs deliberately relate real-world problems of enormous consequences for mankind to student research. Our mission is to use these authentic, original research experiences to begin a process of changing the way science is taught in our secondary school systems.
