Another highlight for #womenshistorymonth: Today @MontclareLabs and @SOAR_NYU fellow Isabella Huang was out engaging in STEM outreach at Sunset Park in Brooklyn during Brain Awareness Week with @biobus & @nyugrossman!#stemoutreach #brainawarenessweek #womeninstem #phdlife

The Vilcek Foundation joined a class of 7th graders for their hands-on science experience led by @BioBus, a nonprofit bringing immersive STEM education directly to schools in historically under-resourced communities. We’re proud to contribute to their important work through a $20,000 discretionary grant to help expand STEM education and mentorship programs for youth across New York City. Our open call for grants is now live through April 30! Mission-driven nonprofit organizations that support immigrants in the arts, sciences, education, or through the provision of social services are encouraged to apply: vilcek.co/3NZzB7e

Watching the joy these students had while participating in hands-on learning confirms how important science education is for our youth. I am happy to be a strong supporter of the work BioBus does, not only in the Bronx, but NYC overall.

Replying to @BioBus
@BioBus helps K-12 students discover, explore, and pursue science. I had the opportunity to join first and second graders from P.S. 315 in Kingsbridge Heights on the BioBus while we examined different organisms under microscopes.

Bored on a slow recovery run. $1K from NYC marathon fundraising goal. Let’s have some fun! Every $100 raised while out running, I drop a random emblem or PS5 game code when I get home AND I stop to do 20 pushups. donate.biobus.org/fundraiser…

Inside the BioBus, AP Bio students zoomed in on Daphnia magna—a transparent crustacean with a visible heartbeat. One look under the microscope, and biology came into focus. 🔬 #WeAreChappaqua @ski626 @BioBus

Inside the BioBus, AP Bio students zoomed in on compost alive with bacteria, fungi and tiny invertebrates. One look under the microscope, and decomposition took on new meaning. 💧🧬 #WeAreChappaqua @ski626 @BioBus

This was such a great time! Thank you @BioBus again for bringing this to Glendale, and thank you to the @QueensChronicle for covering!! I can't wait for our next outing with the BioBus!
Kids in Glendale kept the learning going outside of school last week, when @JoannAriola32 brought the BioBus to Dry Harbor Playground. bit.ly/42lLY1R
