Share your expertise,
creativity, and devices at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Pacific Division’s Second Annual
SCIENTIFIC MAKER EXHIBIT at the Pacific Division’s annual meeting,
Waimea (on the Big Island of Hawaii) June 19-23, 2017It is more feasible to create your own lab equipment than ever before with the advent of 3D printing, low-cost Arduino sensors and other “maker” technologies.
It is also possible to have citizen scientist collaborators who cannot only take data for you, but follow open-source plans to create their own equipment. Are you one of the pathfinders that has actually done this? If so, please consider bringing your creation to Waimea on the Big Island of Hawaii for the AAAS Pacific Division’s second Scientific Maker Exhibit. Group exhibits are welcome. Objects that are the subject of work in progress or recent crowdfunding campaigns or equivalent open-source projects are encouraged.
This exhibit
area is a “third type” of presentation – not a poster, not a talk, but a
chance to show off 3D prints, equipment, etc. There is no provision for
hanging a poster at the exhibit – just plan on flat table space and
anything you want to put up on a table.
There is no charge for space in this exhibit, but all participants must register for the meeting. Note that display space is limited and acceptance of objects for display will be determined solely by the staff and/or representatives of AAAS, Pacific Division based on quality and scientific merit of the proposed display. Participants take sole responsibility for the safety of their displays, and waivers may be required as detailed in the PDF linked below.
The deadline for submission of an application is 23 April, 2017.
