Fleet Science Center is on a mission to realize a San Diego where everyone is connected by the power of science to create a better future. We are a community-focused countywide organization that collaborates with educators, scientific organizations, community leaders and champions of a-ha moments. Join us and explore a world of possibility with hands-on learning for the entire family.

Custom booth size - 10' x 40' booth (includes 8 tables, 8 chairs)
Hands-on STEM activity: strawberry DNA extraction, centrifuge, DNA bracelets, photo opp

Would like the same location as previous years at Petco Park.

Making genomics accessible is key to unlocking its potential to save and improve lives. Illumina is committed to inspiring the next generation of scientists, innovators, and trailblazers, empowering young learners to envision themselves at the forefront of scientific discovery.

We will be have a booth with three different stations with interactive activities at each station.

With Live Well San Diego

We will have a collection of samples of the mosquito lifecycle to be viewed by microscope or magnifying glasses in order to learn about where mosquitoes come from. We typically try to bring some live samples when they are available. We have a mock back backyard setup to provide examples of places that can hold water and breed mosquitoes. This interactive display helps people understand how to prevent mosquitoes and bites and stay protected from diseases.
