OUTbio San Diego

OUTbio San Diego aims to align with OUTbio to enable and facilitate a community within the life sciences and affiliated industries that support professional development and networking. We are still solidifying the activities, but they will be connected to the LGBTQ+ community and the sciences. One idea is to have a quick and simple matching game of people from the LGBTQ+ community who have contributed to the sciences in the past and present.

County of San Diego's Department of Environmental Health & Quality - Hazardous Materials Division & Beach and Bay Program

The Department of Environmental Health & Quality will be conducting an interactive exercise where attendees can hold a CO2 bubble. Additionally, the Hazardous Material Division and the Beach and Bay Program will provide information regarding the regulation and handling of Hazardous Materials & Hazardous/Medical Waste. The Beach and Bay program will be providing information regarding the sampling and posting of signs warning of contaminated water at beaches affected by sewage spills.

Empresa Performing Arts Foundation with Play-Well TEKnologies

We would love to run a LEGO STEM activity for the booth. We would have a few types of catapults made completely of LEGO that kids can use to try to make a projectile into different baskets. We can discuss the potential energy that is released via a spring. We will also have a lever actioned catapult that will launch the projectile based on the force from the kid on the lever.

JCVI

JCVI is at the forefront of genomics, striving to unravel the complexities of the biological world to improve global health. At our booth, explore how plastic accumulates in the food chain—from small fragments in microbes and other tiny organisms to fish and, eventually, us. Learn about how our scientists are tackling the problem of plastic pollution, the power of microbes, and the effect of both on the ocean. Join us for insights at the intersection of genomics and environmental challenges.

ITJ

ITJ's Computer Scientists will be manning the booth and work with kids to create Binary Code Bracelets. They're use colored beads to represent 0s and 1s, allowing them to create bracelets with a secret message in binary.
