At the Research and Analysis Institute (RAI), we believe research is for everyone. Our mission is to make research accessible to every student, regardless of their background. In underrepresented regions, we break down barriers, helping young minds realize their STEM potential. We ignite curiosity and creativity, showing students their ideas can change the world.
Through our high school program, Science71, and undergraduate initiatives, we open doors to scientific discovery. We equip students with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to engage in research. At RAI, research becomes part of every student’s journey, empowering them to tackle global challenges.
Our mission is clear: create a future where research is accessible to all, inspiring every mind to contribute to solving the world’s most pressing issues. Together, we are making that future possible, one student at a time
RAI programs are free of cost to all students. It’s a non profit organization that makes research accessible to everyone.

RAI students share their experiences in our Saturdays program.
RAI was the turning point in my journey, where curiosity met opportunity and dreams found direction. It wasn’t just about research—it was about discovering my potential and realizing that my voice mattered in shaping the future.
At RAI, I found a supportive community that believed in me when I was still learning to believe in myself. The mentorship, resources, and guidance I received opened doors I never imagined walking through. Thanks to RAI, I now know that research isn’t confined to the privileged few. It’s a collective effort, and I am proud to be part of this movement—a movement that empowers underrepresented voices, breaks barriers, and fuels innovation. ”
