🧪🌕 Happy Lunar New Year, LA STEM! It’s the Year of the Snake! 🐍✨
As we enter the Year of the Snake, let’s celebrate how this symbol of transformation mirrors the spirit of STEM—where innovation, adaptability, and growth are always in motion.
1️⃣ Snake-Inspired Robotics: Engineers are studying how snakes move to design robots that can navigate complex environments to design more efficient robots 😮
2️⃣ Venomous Science: Snake venom is helping cancer research! and has also been used to develop medications. 🧪
3️⃣ Snakeskin technology: Snakeskin has inspired a material that reduces friction – harnessing the ssslippery skin of snakes into breaking edge tech! 🔬
Here’s to a year of growth, discovery, and innovation 🌱🚀
Our Ecosystem Manager Madeline met this beautiful snake at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum (@naturemuseum) in Chicago, Illinois.

Thank you for the work you do @2bitfoundation & @lacityparks 💙
Reposted @2bitfoundation Thank you SO MUCH @lacitypark and @collectivestem for the opportunity to bring our Math Monsters workshop to fire-impacted kids! Math Monsters allows kids to use their vivid imaginations to bring math to life and it`s always a big hit 😁
We are putting on day camps in local Los Angeles communities to support kids and families impacted by the fires.
We need volunteers and donations to keep these going! To volunteer to lead more day camp activities, or to donate to cover costs, click the link in our bio or stories 🙌
