A short story about us

Welcome to QuantaHealth Research Institute, where our journey began as a small health research institute with a big vision. At the Quanta Health Research Institute, we believe that transformative scientific discovery thrives when every curious mind has the opportunity to contribute. We exist to bridge the gap between the classroom and the laboratory, ensuring that a student's potential is not limited by their background.

Our mission is to expand equitable access to high-quality STEM research by building a new generation of diverse, skilled, and ethical scientists. Established in Texas, QuantaHealth Research Institute is organized exclusively for scientific, educational, and charitable purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Join us in our commitment to a healthier future through innovation and collaboration.

Our Approach

Our core work involves designing and implementing a comprehensive research pipeline for motivated public-school students. Through a program of structured mentorship, we pair aspiring young researchers with experienced experts in their fields. We guide our students through the entire research process with clear milestones from developing an initial proposal and standardizing protocols to analyzing data and, ultimately, producing publishable, reproducible work that can stand up to rigorous peer review.

Our Story

Quanta Health Research Institute began with a simple, frustrating observation from its founders Shiva Yadav and Amrit Yadav, public-school students who loved difficult problems in STEM related subjects like biology and data science. In high school, they designed award-winning projects in oncology, biotechnology, and environmental science, learned to read primary literature, and discovered how reproducible methods turn ideas into credible results. Along the way they also discovered something else: the path that made this possible was confusing, uneven, and largely hidden from many equally talented classmates.

Applications asked for prior lab experience that students could not get without already having a mentor. Competitions rewarded rigor, yet few students had access to standardized protocols, ethics guidance, or feedback loops that make results trustworthy. Even when motivation was high, the scaffolding was missing. The founder kept hearing the same questions from peers: Where do I start. How do I contact a lab. What counts as good data. How do I document my methods so someone else can reproduce them.

Quanta Health was created to answer those questions with a system rather than a one-time favor. The institute builds structured pipelines that pair students with mentors, teach proposal writing, define milestones, and maintain shared repositories of protocols and analysis notebooks. It offers practical training on research integrity, data management, and communication, so students learn to explain their work clearly to both experts and community audiences. The goal is not a trophy. The goal is a result that stands up when someone else repeats it, and a student who understands why.

Today, Quanta Health exists to ensure that curiosity can become credible research regardless of background. We believe opportunity should not depend on who you already know. With clear steps, open resources, and consistent mentorship, students can move from interest to impact and contribute real science that serves people.
