diversity, equity,
& inclusion
Diverse perspectives accelerate scientific progress and innovation. We are committed to creating diverse, equitable, and inclusive educational environments both inside and outside our lab. Learn more about how we are training the next generation of scientists below.

BioBits® Kits
Hands-on learning has been shown to improve performance in STEM subjects, but is challenging to implement in most classrooms. We created low-cost, just-add-water kits to increase access to high-quality, hands-on biology education.
Communication & Outreach
We are committed to sharing our work with the community, through programs like MITES Saturdays. Want to bring our science into your classroom? Get in touch!
Research Experiences
We can host a limited number of junior high and high school students and educators for hands-on research experiences in our lab. Interested individuals should apply to sponsored programs at MIT (e.g., via MITES or MRSEC) or contact us.
