Outreach
At Engineering Discovery Days, our lab participated and held hands-on activities that showcased the exciting work of 3D printing! We got to meet and teach students about how 3D printing works, and they got to take home resin-made charms!
At The Seattle Hebrew Academy’s science fair, we introduced students to 3D printing by having them try out extrusion printing using syringes of custom F127 resin designed and synthesized in our lab. We discussed the advantages of extrusion printing vs vat polymerization, and how chemical interactions affected properties of a material.
We were happy to be part of the "Introduce a Girl to Biotechnology" event that was hosted by UW Women in Chemical Engineering. We explained different 3D printers and in our workshop, students printed hydrogels!
Our lab visited Montlake Elementary School and Thurgood Marshall Elementary School to do some fun activities on hydrogels! This year, we did a demo on superabsorbent polymers diaper demo and the students got some hands-on experience with making calcium alginate.
