Harnessing the POWER OF light for environmental monitoring!

Do you care about your environment and so happen to be a science enthusiast? If so, join us as we explore bioluminescent organisms as biosensors to detect heavy metals and other contaminants, with the ultimate goal of making science fun and accessible by creating a toolkit for our communities to conduct their own experiments. During our first workshop, we’ll learn together which organisms are best for detecting heavy metals. If synthesizing conclusions through gathering qualitative observations piques your interest, or if you’re fascinated by bioluminescent organisms, drop by SoundBio Lab on Friday, April 10th, 4:00 - 6:00 PM.
