National University
We will be providing a variety of hands-on models (human anatomy and cell/microbiology). We might also have kinetic sandbox with plants and animals for an ecology theme.
San Diego City College - School of Science, Mathematics, and Nursing/San Diego City College Outreach
Hands on activities in chemistry, physics, geosciences, astronomy, and life sciences. This will include live demonstrations and hands on experiments and activities.
SDSU Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders
Brain puzzles, brain health info for kids and adults
General Atomics Energy/Fusion
Booth has interactive demonstrations for attendees. Topics covered include states of matter, electricity, and magnetism. Demonstrations include the use of permanent and electromagnets, liquid nitrogen, gaseous plasma tubes, and Tesla coils.
San Diego Miramar College, Biotech
Participants will learn how to use a micropipette by pipetting watercolor to chromatography paper, making bookmarks that they can take home.
Biodiesel & Algal Studies Group
Since 2009 Castle Park High students, with Dr. Pomeroy of UCSD, have learned to produce biodiesel from vegetable oil. Our booth demonstrates the step-by-step process of biodiesel synthesis, discusses the advantages of biodiesel over petroleum and outlines the ease of production. Our booth includes CAICE researchers who provide demonstrations concerning climate change and atmospheric chemistry. We also partner with Algenesis who demonstrate biodegradable materials that mimic plastics and foams.
Naval Information Warfare Pacific
AI vs Human: Can you sort objects (different vehicle types) faster than a robot? The human participant will be blind folded or obstructed from the view of the bin of different objects. The goal of the challenge will be for human and robot to sort the objects(vehicles) into three different bins in a set time limit (1 minute). This fun interactive experience highlights the core disciplines (computer science, robotics, and machine learning) of our science and engineering workforce.
Sally Ride Science @UC San Diego
Map matching activity by instructor
MilliporeSigma and the Curiosity Cube
The Curiosity Cube is a retrofitted shipping container that has been transformed into a mobile science lab. It features interactive hands-on science experiments using the latest technology to spark curiosity in the next generation of scientists. The Curiosity Cube allows us to extend our impact beyond the classroom to reach students and their families at public events. The Curiosity Cube experiments are led by local MilliporeSigma employees.
The San Diego River Park Foundation
Offer fun hands-on outdoor nature activities for children of all ages to see what the great outdoors can offer.
