About the event
Cambridge Science Carnival 2026: Make Your Own Tissue-Like Beads! 🧪
Join MASS AWIS at the Cambridge Science Carnival, a community celebration that brings science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to the public through engaging, hands-on activities and demonstrations.
Stop by our booth for a fun, interactive activity where you’ll create gel-like beads using sodium alginate and calcium chloride. Watch a liquid transform into a soft “solid” and discover how scientists use similar materials to mimic human tissues and develop innovative medical technologies.
Come explore, experiment, and discover the science behind biomaterials! 🔬🧬
Please reach out to events@massawis.org if you are interested in volunteering with us by October 3, 2026, 6 PM ET.
