is what is in store for the Feb. 27th Virginia Tech KTU program. Posts
will be featuring the exhibitors at KTU over the next couple of weeks!
"It’s a Small World" by Cimini Lab, Department of Biological Sciences
Ever
wonder what your skin is made of or what an insect wing looks like?
Come and see some of the smallest things in our world! Activities will
be designed to teach students about the microscopic world, specifically
cells, through the use of microscopes. We will provide intriguing sample
slides for students to examine, such as cheek cells, plant leaves and
insect wings. Videos of cells growing will be displayed to show examples
of what powerful microscopes can see. Learn how microscopic things make
up everything around us!
The
Cimini lab is lead by associate professor Daniela Cimini through the
Department of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech. The primary
interests of the lab are in understanding the mechanisms driving
successful cell division and how these activities can be applied to the
medical and environmental scene.
