Mozilla Open Science Mini-Grant - Biomedicine Challenge

next steps: 4k biomedical telemicroscopy

From The Enterprise Center’s press release:

“Students at Hixson High School and The Howard School have been awarded a Mozilla Open Science Grant to develop biomedical science projects.

This international grant was also awarded to researchers in Ghana, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany and other U.S. cities, but Hixson and Howard were the only K-12 institutions to receive a grant. With the Mozilla grant, teachers at Hixson and Howard will develop additional curricula and research projects that use the 4K Microscope for biomedicine.

Healthcare remains one of Hamilton County’s key industries, with a growing need for lab technicians, researchers and other professionals to enter the field. The grant will provide opportunities for students to explore these potential career pathways, as well as contribute to ongoing research projects.”
