IN THIS LESSON

We talk about “Frugal Science,” project at the the Stanford University realized by Dr. Manu Prakash, who, using his biophysics knowledge, developed powerful ultra-low-cost tools for ecological monitoring and tropical disease diagnoses. Dr. Otto Wilson presents examples of how the Foldoscope works and its link to origami. He explains how it was envisioned and can be used to make discoveries and learn about science.

We also share links to some other work from Dr. Prakash that you should check.
