Shining a light on the role of trace metals in neurodegenerative diseases

Futurum

A team of researchers with expertise in physics, engineering and biology are finding out whether trace metals in the brain are linked to neurodegenerative diseases. This gives each element a unique set of energy levels – a signature that shows up when X-rayed. Shining a light on the role of trace metals in neurodegenerative diseases.

New Turnkey Project-Based Learning Resources for High School STEM Teachers

The Tech Savvy Science Teacher

This huge teacher preparation “start-up cost” (in terms of time and energy) is certainly one reason why many high school STEM teachers hesitate to try PBL, although they may want to. Our new MIT BLOSSOMS PBL units are designed for just such a teacher – someone who wants to give PBL a try but is not sure just how to get started.
