Our Practices

Public Outreach

We ran a stall at a Questacon event as well as assisted in the ARC Centre of Excellence stall at the Old Bus Depot Markets in Kingston.

School Outreach

We headed out to Melba Copland High School in order to engage high school students on the topic of science ethics as well as introduce them to genetic engineering.

Multimedia

We've found that the use of multimedia has vastly improved our ability to communicate complex scientific ideas to non-experts in the error. We've constructed two videos: an animation of a cell and a brief video describing our project.
