Join us for Take-out Science, Tuesdays at noon (ET)

RTNN is pleased to announce a weekly microscopy program (Tuesdays at noon, ET) for your quarantined viewing pleasure. Each week, Dr. Holly Leddy (SMIF at Duke), will explore a different theme using both a light microscope, a portable scanning electron microscope, and the support of RTNN technical staff. We’ll broadcast all sessions live and answer your questions. All shows will be posted here.

All shows are designed with K-12 audiences in mind and are open to everyone. Join us for some take-out science as we explore the world at a much smaller scale. (And don’t forget your take-out lunch!)
