Hamilton STEM visits OSU for BioEYES field trip

We hosted fourth graders from Hamilton STEM Elementary School on March 26th for a 2-hour field trip to follow up on their fall in-classroom BioEYES experience. With the help of OSU graduate students Clare Austin and Ben Pastore, postdocs Rene Arvola and Gina Nostromo, and faculty/staff Sharon Amacher, Tom Gallagher, Mariah Lesar, and Danielle Pvirre, these junior scientists toured the fish facility, viewed live fluorescent zebrafish embryos, worm embryos, and fruit fly larvae under a microscope, did Punnett square genetics, and learned how to decode DNA messages! We are so proud of the Department and OSU community members who are generous with their time supporting this outreach program!
