Curious about making your own biodegradable plastic materials? Join us in this workshop to learn a recipe and safely experiment with the formulation to make several different versions. We’ll see how properties like color, flexibility, and durability change. Note that the material will take time to set and will be available for pick-up after the workshop. Example end products will be brought to class to have fun with.

Bacterial transformation is an essential protocol for genetic engineering and molecular biology more broadly. Transformation is the process by which foreign DNA is taken into a cell. This simple yet powerful technique is often used to make large amounts of valuable proteins like insulin or modify the genetic makeup of a cell to carry out a new or improved function. Beginners welcome!
All ages 12+ are welcome: no scientific experience is required!

In this lab, we'll learn how to build your own microscope that can be assembled using low-cost materials. With your new microscope, we can study microorganisms too small to see with the naked eye. Get ready to have a close look at your hair, see plant cells, have a glimpse at life in yogurt, and discover what you can observe in any rain/waterway samples you bring in!
