Welcome!
Welcome!
Science is not just something we do in the lab—it’s something we believe should be shared, explored, and applied. Whether you’re a curious student, a parent, a fellow scientist, or a potential partner, we want to connect you with the ideas, questions, and discoveries driving our work.
On this page, you’ll find our continuing work to promote:
Hands-on activities for kids, families, and teachers including science fair guides and curriculum
Public lectures, tutorials, and talks for scientists and lifelong learners
We hope this space helps you explore, learn, and engage—wherever you’re coming from.

De-CODEX a Cell
De-CODEX a Cell
De-CODEX a Cell is an interactive outreach game that helps students understand how DNA, proteins, and antibodies are used to identify and classify different cell types with spatial-omics technologies.
This 3D-printable, modular game allows educators to assemble components at home and tailor lessons to their students. The game can be easily adapted for different class sizes, grade levels, and learning goals.
Through hands-on gameplay, students model cell phenotyping by matching complementary DNA sequences, antibodies, and fluorescent signals to specific proteins. Using shape recognition and color-coded fluorescence, players learn how molecular specificity enables scientists to decode cell identity.
Materials to implement this game can be downloaded here.
