🌟 STEM in Full Color Expo 🌟 I had an amazing time attending the STEM in Full Color Expo during #MassSTEMWeek 2024 at the vibrant Southline Boston! This event brought together STEM education and workforce development organizations to celebrate and support diverse talent, helping launch careers in science, technology, engineering, and math. One of the highlights of the event was stepping aboard the BioBus, a mobile science lab that brings hands-on science education to communities. I had a cool experience of observing Daphnia (common water fleas—planktonic crustaceans) under a research-grade microscope. It was fascinating to see these tiny organisms up close and observe their intricate movements. 🌊🔬 Thanks to LabCentral Ignite & BioversityMA for creating an event that inspires future innovators and leaders in STEM. On top of all the science fun, I ended up interacting with the most adorable munchkin—talk about adding some extra joy to the day! 😄 #STEMinFullColor #MASTEMWeek #BioBus #STEMEducation #FunWithScience #DiversityInSTEM #CareerDevelopment #STEMExploration #SouthlineBoston

In honor of Indigenous Peoples' Day, we celebrate the vibrant legacy of the Taíno people, the original inhabitants of many Caribbean islands. The Taíno thrive through their descendants in Puerto Rico, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and beyond. From words like "canoe" and "hurricane" to innovations such as hammocks and the method of barbecue grilling, their influence is felt today. Their cultural heritage and traditions are passed down through generations, enriching the world. Let’s honor the Taíno and all Indigenous cultures for their invaluable contributions to history, innovation, and cultural diversity. Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day! #IndigenousPeoplesDay #Taino #CaribbeanHeritage #InnovationAndCulture
