 35910.jpeg!\n\nScience Makers is a monthly event to discuss and build low-
 cost\, DIY and open hardware for science and education.\n\nOpen source har
 dware allows and promotes building and remixing of devices through sharing
  designs and code. Combined with new manufacturing and fabrication technol
 ogies like 3D-printing open hardware has great potential to boost hands-on
  learning and scientific experimentation in STEM education. Not only are s
 olutions lower cost but they are also customisable and no longer a black b
 ox.\n\nWe'll hear from some projects focused on open hardware and educatio
 n from schools through to universities. \n\n12:00 - Arrival and coffee \n\
 n12:15 - Presentations and demos \n\n• Carlos Lugo on open hardware for 
 plant electrophysiology in secondary schools\n\n• Matt Little from the C
 urious Electric Company on  environmental and educational electronics kits
  for all ages\n\n• Amy Lai on OpenAFM - an open atomic force microscope 
 built by students at UCL and Tshingua University for use in schools.\n\n13
 :30 - Pizza (£4 suggested donation)\n\n14:30 - Making! \n\nWe will try to
  build some of the educational kits\, the following are guaranteed project
 s:\n\n• Plant electrophysiology boards\n\n• Ultrasonic bat sensor\n\nY
 ou are welcome to tell us about your own ideas and projects or bring somet
 hing to build!
