Omni Nano participated at the last CNSI High School Nanoscience workshop for teachers this past week at the University of California Los Angeles California NanoSystems Institute. Here, teachers were taught nanoscience experiments to integrate into their science curricula, to help enrich their STEM students’ education and garner interest in new topics in science. It was
At this past CNSI High School Nanoscience Program workshop at the California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) at UCLA in Los Angeles, high school science teachers from the Greater Los Angeles Area learned about “nano” water filtration, giving them more tools to add to their curriculum for better student preparation for jobs and careers in nanotechnology. At the
At todays UCLA/CNSI High School Nanoscience Program workshop, teachers from high schools from the Greater Los Angeles Area participated in this workshop on “Biotoxicity,” where they were able to get hands on experience and learn the resources to effectively teach this topic to their students. This workshop at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA in Los
This past weekend, about 20 teachers from the Los Angeles Area learned about “Writing Patterns with Light,” a hands-on and interactive workshop as a part of the UCLA/CNSI High School Nanoscience Program at the California NanoSystems Insitute at UCLA in Los Angeles. Teachers were taught and trained to use light to generate patterns. As usual
In this weeks Nanotechnology workshop as a part of the UCLA/CNSI High School Nanoscience Program at the UCLA California NanoSystems Institute in Los Angeles, Science teachers learned about creating “Super-Water-Repelling Surfaces,” led by students and volunteers. Hands-on experiments were taught and explained step-by-step, so teachers can recreate the lab activity in their classroom. Each teacher
When we give our kids the basic nourishment, they’re going to thrive. When students go to school hungry, they are unable to focus on their classes and unable to unlock their full potential. Omni Nano supports and highlights the LA Food Bank in Los Angeles, which serves more than 320,000 people each year. In his
In today’s Nanotechnology workshop at the UCLA/CNSI High School Nanoscience Program at UCLA, STEM teachers from all over the Greater Los Angeles Area learned about “Making Solar Cells from Cranberry Juice,” a fun experiment. The teachers learned about chemistry with everyday things, such as juice. The workshop aimed to help teachers grow interest in their
About 15 teachers from High Schools all over the Greater Los Angeles Area participated in today’s workshop on “biopolymers,” led by PhD graduate students at UCLA California NanoSystems Institute as a part of the UCLA/CNSI High School Nanoscience Program. As usual, at the end of the workshop, each teacher received materials/supplies to perform the lab
About 20 teachers from all over the Greater Los Angeles Area participated in today’s workshop for the Nanoscience Program at UCLA California NanoSystems Institute on “supercapacitors,” a hybrid concept between a battery and a capacitor. These devices can store a lot of charges/energy (like a battery) and deliver it very fast (like a capacitor). This
This month, Omni Nano participated in the nanoscience training for high school science teachers at the UCLA California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) focused on qualitative and quantitative methods to purify water from a number of contaminants, such as copper ions and bacteria. About 20 teachers from all over the Greater Los Angeles Area participated and received
Our mission is to educate and inspire today’s youth to become tomorrow’s scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs of nanotechnology.
