    5 Ways To Share Math with Kids

    5 Ways To Share Math with Kids

    Mathematics is not about following rules, it's about playing—and exploring, fighting, looking for clues, and sometimes even breaking things, according to Dan Finkel. In this playful, inspiring talk, the founder of Math for Love offers teachers and parents alike a five-step guide to sharing the beauty and playfulness of mathematical thinking with children.

    A Forgotten Space Age Technology Could Change How We Grow Food

    A Forgotten Space Age Technology Could Change How We Grow Food

    We're heading for a world population of 10 billion people -- but what will we all eat? Lisa Dyson rediscovered an idea developed by NASA in the 1960s for deep-space travel, and it could be a key to reinventing how we grow food.

    A Look into future Battery

    A Look into future Battery

    This mini-lecture introduces the future battery. The Faculty of Applied Science and Textiles (FAST) and the Institute of Textiles & Clothing (ITC) organized the mini-lecture series for more than three years. The lectures aim to enrich students' knowledge in creative perspectives and arouse their interest in Sciences, Fashion and Textiles. In view of the unpredictable development of the COVID-19 pandemic, the upcoming mini-lecture Series will be switched from face-to-face mode to online mode.

    A Mathematical Model for Predicting Parkinson's

    A Mathematical Model for Predicting Parkinson's

    What if we looked at Parkinson's as an neurological electrical problem? Brain researcher Eleftheria Pissadaki and her team study dopamine neurons, the neurons that selectively die during Parkinson's. They discovered that the bigger a neuron is, the more vulnerable it becomes because it simply requires more energy. This new insight is reframing the disease -- and by "finding the fuse box for each neuron" and figuring out how much energy it needs, may help us neuroprotect our brain cells.

    A Smarter, More Precise Way to Think about Public Health

    A Smarter, More Precise Way to Think about Public Health

    Sue Desmond-Hellmann is using precision public health -- an approach that incorporates big data, consumer monitoring, gene sequencing and other innovative tools -- to solve the world's most difficult medical problems. It's already helped cut HIV transmission from mothers to babies by nearly half in sub-Saharan Africa, and now it's being used to address alarming infant mortality rates all over the world. The goal: to save lives by bringing the right interventions to the right populations at the right time.

    Abdominal organs (plastic anatomy)

    Abdominal organs (plastic anatomy)

    We're going to take apart a plastic anatomy model and see what we can find in the abdomen. We'll identify as many organs as we can, see how they fit into the abdomen relative to one another, working our way from anterior to posterior.
