Saturday morning and troubleshooting homemade spectrometer on how to get a nice spectrum is so fun. We are using this low-cost tech for freshwater ‘Algal Bloom Monitoring’ driven by ‘Citizen Science’ @OpenFieldC
Meet Poonam Verma, a science teacher from Bulandshahr, UP India, who is participant of OFC's algal bloom project working tirelessly with her students to monitor algal bloom in their local waterbody. #algalbloom#algae#frugal#citizenscience
The Free Press Journal talks about OFC's new project by @Edurafi, have come up with a technique to modify a #foldscope and make it detect #microplastics in air/dust and educate the children about environmental problems caused by #plastics.

Hello everyone! We are delighted to update on the progress we have made in last few months. So far our in our Algal bloom monitoring project we have trained 150+teachers and reached out to around 600+ students in the US, India and Bangladesh!!
Introducing 'One Sky' 🌠 💫 a virtual astronomy course and workshop for high school students starting Aug 2022! If you are excited about astronomy 🌟 and want to learn more, find more details at our website and sign up at -

Armed with low-cost but powerful paper microscopes, @INBT_JHU alum Ikbal Choudhury @IkbalChoudhur20 and his team at @OpenFieldC are bringing science education and conservation to low-resource and low-income communities. https://t.co/gxcVUbCqQO
According to @IkbalChoudhur20 of @OpenFieldC, citizen science seeds scientific curiosity, breaks down barriers, and makes science more accessible, especially in developing countries.

Our #monthlyhighlight today is Dr Snehalatha Doddipati from our #algalbloom monitoring cohort and her students at Telangana Social Welfare Residential Degree & PG College for Women that provide free education to women from marginalized families @OpenFieldC@NatGeoExplorers (1/)
Our new project - 'One Sky' ✨️
A virtual education framework for students with the goal to introduce the basics of astronomy, providing them with observational techniques and tools to study the properties of stars in the night sky. 🌙

New results!
Propofol anesthesia alters cortical traveling waves
It caused slow-delta traveling waves to strengthen and travel in different directions. Higher frequency TW weakened and switched to directions where the slow-delta waves were less frequent.
