Exciting news! Our CEO Laura Lynn Gonzalez is now featured in a podcast episode “10K Reasons to Love Science: Making STEM Accessible Through XR” sharing about our mission to inspire curiosity in science through immersive learning with Dr. Shannon Putman. 🔈: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1...

This movie shows the bubbling surface of a distant star, as captured with unprecedented clarity by the ALMA observatory. R Doradus is a huge star. Each of these bubbles is 50-75 times the diameter of our entire Sun! 🧪🔭 www.almaobservatory.org/en/press-rel...

Tomorrow, join us at Lawrence Hall of Science's #STEMDay, for a #CRISPR & Sickle Cell VR showcase to celebrate the NSF’s 75th anniversary! Funding from NSF and NIH allows us to bring science research to life in VR for all ages – so come out and support science with us! 🧬 #NSF #NIH #scienceducation

Join us TONIGHT (6–9pm) at the Lawrence Hall of Science for a special evening event: “The Buzz of Science”! Flaming firefly statues 🔥, talks on #bees, fire #ecology & insect #biodiversity – AND demo our VR experience to save Sunshine Creek from invasive Glassy-winged Sharpshooters. 🐝 See you there!

We got a lot of “wow”s and open mouths of amazement at the Oakland School for the Arts last week as we piloted our #CRISPR and Sickle Cell experience with classroom activities designed by the Lawrence Hall of Science. Real world feedback on 10k Science… truly inspiring! #VR #EduSky #iTeachBio

URGENT ACTION FOR NSF GRANTEES. For current & recent (since 2020) awards, archive your award history this afternoon/tonight. Screenshot/download/print your work in research.gov & alert your partners. We have credible threats to integrity of awards tracking systems (via @jeremymberg.bsky.social)

GOOD NEWS, DORKS! YOUR voice matters. Research shows people still trust scientists — just the wrong ones. But we can change that. GET OUT THERE! SPEAK UP! Read more below ⬇️ www.nature.com/articles/d41...

wow www.harvard.edu/research-fun...

Spectacular work from the MICrONS project! We are learning so much from the amazingly detailed wiring diagram of the mouse visual cortex.

Dr. Liz Clark uses a particle accelerator to make scans of a tiny bug which wreaks havoc on cash crops like grapevines and olive trees. We worked with Liz to create the Trouble in Sunshine Creek experience - you can learn about plant biology and how the bug spreads bacteria. 🧪 #supportscience 1/3

We worked with Jennifer Doudna's @innovativegenomics.bsky.social to create a 3D CRISPR experience: zoom inside a human body to see a treatment for sickle cell. We love working with scientists to make real science accessible to all - something that is needed now more than ever. 🧪 #supportscience

Science is under attack. Budget cuts on research across the US are devastating for graduate students and research labs. We’ve seen this first-hand with scientists that we work with to create 10k Science content. Thank you @wired.com and @chenmaggiesy.bsky.social for covering this critical moment.

This is 10x the budget of NIH that has already been lost to America, as Trump and Musk seek to gut the government for their personal profit.

This is one of the most incredible visualizations we've seen in years

Yi Ji, 4th year PhD at UC Berkeley, researches the impacts of wildfires on air quality. Yi built a 3D VR experience that shows the LA wildfire impact on air quality, and explains air pollutant effects on health. See what the scientists made: 10k.science/bootcamp-3 #airquality #scicomm #sciviz

Chandrima Majumdar (@c-majumdar.bsky.social), postdoc at UC Berkeley, depicts in 3D VR how her research uses #structuralbiology to understand the process and limitations of creating new #polymers using bacterial #ribosomes to create new materials. 10k.science/bootcamp-3 #scicomm #science #sciviz

In a time full of change and uncertainty, allow yourself a gentle break—a kind moment to clear your mind and find peace. Like this bat ray gliding through the blue, a shark cruising with quiet confidence, or a giant sea bass drifting in the gentle sway of the sea. youtube.com/shorts/sAgHY...

One impact of the NSF freeze: They fund the small nonprofit, EarthScope, that manages seismic and GPS stations used worldwide to detect and warn of earthquakes and navigate autonomous vehicles. EarthScope can maybe make payroll this week. A prolonged freeze could see stations fail.

What’s Next for Ed Tech in 2024 Coming soon: advances in VR and high-tech classrooms, plus even more AI. #EDUSky #AcademicSky bit.ly/4aFygct
