SDAALAS - (San Diego branch) American Association for Laboratory Animal Science
We will have our mouse mascot available for pictures. plenty of swag and informational handouts, visual demonstrations on husbandry, possible origami mice and frogs.

America's Navy
The Navy’s booth at the San Diego STEM Festival will serve as a high-visibility, interactive space designed to engage K–12 students, educators, and parents through hands-on STEM experiences and direct conversations with Navy personnel. The footprint will showcase how STEM skills translate into real-world Navy missions across engineering, technology, aviation, cyber, and medical fields.
USD STEM Outreach Club
Our booth will include activities hosted by several of USD's science clubs: STEM Outreach, Bio Club, Pre-Dental Club and Physics Club. We are return exhibitors, and our booth was a big hit last year!
Kenai Therapeutics
Neurographic art and building neuronal connections.
Bioengineering Graduate Society
The UCSD Bioengineering graduate society will host a hands-on activity for K-12 students about stem cell differentiation. A groundbreaking UCSD study has shown that stem cells differentiate based on the material properties of the surface that they are on. Students will blindly feel into many boxes to feel the material properties of different materials and guess what a stem cell would differentiate into if on that material. There is then an arts and crafts section where students can make their o
Biomedical Engineering Society at UCSD
We will be bringing a 3d printed heart model with blue and red LEDs lighting up tubes to show the flow of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood through the heart and how the body is supplied with oxygenated blood. Students will also have the opportunity to put on real scientist gloves and feel a real preserved porcine heart. We will also be hanging out informational pamphlets/brochures and 3D printed stents that emphasize the importance of bioengineering.
EcoVivarium Reptile Sanctuary & Museum
Hands-on reptile and invertebrate encounters.
Illumina
A variety of science/dna/stem related activities
MilliporeSigma
The Curiosity Cube is a mobile science lab that offers interactive experiments with the goal of increasing access to science education for students aged 8-13. The program includes five Cubes across North America, Europe and Africa, extending our impact beyond the classroom to reach students at schools and families at public events. Local MilliporeSigma employees and partners lead the experiments, allowing students to learn from “real-life” scientists and explore STEM careers.
San Diego Natural History Museum
The Nat will bring out some fascinating specimens from our collection along with some intriguing naturalist games where participants can practice their scientific skills!
