Powerful Polymers: the Chemistry of Plastic!
Career Discussion with Neurocrine Scientists
Career Talk with Marcus Thorne: Art + Architecture
Manufacturing Engineering - Grades 4-8
Chase the Rainbow with UCSD Bioengineers
We live in a world of color and vibrance. And the molecules that give up these colors whether from plants or candy can be separated using common tools. Join the Bioengineering Graduate Society at UCSD to learn more about chromatography!
Real World Applications of Bioengineering with UCSD
Have you ever wanted to learn more about some cool applications of bioengineering? Come join the Bioengineering Graduate Society at UCSD as we talk about two different bioengineering topics: bacteriophages and chromatography
Bacteria and viruses are known to cause many different diseases, but bioengineers can “reprogram” these microorganisms to get them to help us instead of hurt us. Join us as we explain how a certain type of virus called “bacteriophages” can be engineered to fight bacterial infections and how it saved the life of one of our own faculty members!
Build a Lung with UCSD Bioengineers
In the last year we've talked a lot about lung health, but do you know how your lungs actually work? Join the Bioengineering Graduate Society at UCSD as we explain basic respiratory anatomy and physiology, and guide attendees through a fun and simple lung model activity.
If you'd like to do the activity with us, you'll need the following supplies:
1 empty one liter bottle
3 balloons
2 straws
Tape
Scissors
Play-doh (optional)
