Building Climate Resilience in the Bay Area
The Save the Bay habitat restoration team grows 30-40,000 native plants every year to restore tidal marsh around the Bay Area with two nurseries where the magic happens. Join us for a virtual behind-the-scenes tour of our nurseries and take a look at the life cycle of one of our native tidal marsh species. Then, […]
San Francisco Math Circle Math Festival

STEM Storytime: Teen Inventors
Can teen science make a difference? Yes, it can! This virtual event recounts stories of real teen inventors and discoverers and what they did. Deepika used cement, a sunscreen ingredient, and sunlight to purify water for developing nations. Dasia devised sutures that change colors to save the lives of women. William taught himself the physics […]
Starship Reality-check: The Science of Deep Space Travel
The stars beckon. But humans evolved to survive on Earth, not to hurtle through space. For long-duration travel – interplanetary and, even, interstellar – what spacecraft accommodations are necessary? Is on-board human hibernation an option? Might we overcome the problems of space radiation and prolonged weightlessness? Finally, scientists may argue that the ideal craft for […]
Oh Behave! Changing the Way We React to Bias & Discrimination
Can we really tackle bias and discrimination? Dive into the research with Asst. Professor Eason, UC Berkeley Psychologist, to demystify why prejudice and bias have persisted for so long. Understand the impacts of our “representational landscapes”, such as why folks like Native Americans and queer people get left out of our national narratives or how […]
