I am a faculty at Stanford and run the Prakash Lab at Department of Bioengineering at Stanford University. Foldscope community is at the heart of our Frugal Science movement - and I can not tell you how proud I am of this community and grassroots movement.

With our partners at PIVOT, CVB and Stanford; we had an incredible opportunity to run large scale workshops in schools in Madagascar. We were fortunate that the workshop was documented by an incredible Japanese crew that documented this. I am quickly sharing this video; that allows you to see what it takes to run an outdoors foldscope workshop; and how surprises lead the way. This is an incredible group of students, volunteers, teachers and kids from the street – making for a mega event. Watch the video in full..
More details on work the kids did at the school coming soon.
cheers
