July 15

Today was a flurry of blurred events. Right after breakfast, Larry Goldstein had a very informative lecture on stem cell while mostly staying away from the heated politics surrounding it. I enjoyed hearing from a scientist what a stem cell does and the latest work done on the research. It is fascinating to watch so many new changes in science be made in such short time. After lunch, I was involved in the three labs, studying gravitational potential energy, collisions, trajectory, and kinetic energy. The labs were also fun with the water balloon launching, the water rocket shooting, and the balls bouncing. The mixture of both fun and learning was ideal. See you tomorrow.
