Today's #STEMsigns celebrates DNA Day. There are about 10 DNA signs in this video, but the star of the show is the beauty and power of ASL.

The complex topic of DNA to protein comes to life with ASL with hands and space. What once felt impossible, now feels possible.

@KStackWhitney @naomicaselli I’ve been working on a set of resource lists for #ASL and English, and I’ve been vetting everything I add here (and adding notes about language mode when something seems valuable/hard to come by but is in PSE, etc).
Please use and share!

4. @NAD1880 posted a video in ASL about communicating with medical personnel during Coronavirus and provided guidelines for medical professionals and DHH/DB people.

[CDHY @CDHY_WA]

More often than not, DHH people and kids are the last to know when it comes to current news, esp. with COVID-19. Some people are doing their part to keeping DHH people and kids informed. Here are a few and they go a long way:
