I think a really great way to understand how the general public views museums as nation-building tools is to look at how fake museums are used in theme parks.

Happy Halloween! To celebrate, 🌱biologist Jason Thomas and I made bioplastic algae strings from @TheTechInteract using 🎃pumpkin purée as the base. We made it into a spooky “gourd”-ian knot/pumpkin!! @CorinneTakara @biophilebytes – at Palo Alto, CA

Our first #Kombucha project: We made a @Sphero Specdrum piano using our dried out #SCOBY! This is iteration 1. Further experimentation will be done to perfect texture, bases, colors and sounds! @CorinneTakara @TheTechInteract @SpheroEdu

This is a great post on “airborne" & and why we need to rethink our comm on it. “A major problem plaguing this discussion is the false dichotomy between “droplet” & “airborne” transmission that we use in healthcare settings (for simplicity of messaging..” @dan_diekema

When talking about decolonizing science, I often get asked what that would look like? I should have known (and love) that the answer to that question is @Glamrou.

“If subatomic particles defy constructs all the time, why should we believe in fixed constructs of gender or any kind of reality?” Drag performer & writer Amrou Al-Kadhi aka @Glamrou questions why gender should be binary when the physics which underpins the universe can change.

For @CorinneTakara, “biodesign is storytelling and slow-making with nature.” She and @curiousoctopus from @MuseumModernArt are talking to us live right now. #BDCTurns5

Hot take: STEM outreach should be centered on students with the least STEM exposure - kids from working class communities, in underfunded schools, kids who are never told you can be a scientist for a living. Kids in fancy private schools with PI parents shouldn't be the priority
