    Intellectual freedom is more than banned books. It's the free flow of ideas and information. Protect freedom to read, create, and express. Borrow a banned book from the Library bookmobile, create resistance art, or visit the cultural center libraries for a chance to win a limited edition Read & Resist tote bag and gift card to the Illini Union bookstore.

    • All Day
    • November 7 (Illini Union, Room 314A) and Day 2 (IGB, Conference Room 612)

    The kinSTEM Conference is designed to provide a space for STEM communities to gather, reflect, and grow. Rather than define a single path, the goals remain open to interpretation, allowing participants to bring their own meanings, experiences, and questions into the space.

  • PhD student Kevin Tan explores the CraftCells using a VR headset
    • 10:15 am   11:30am
    • 141 Loomis Laboratory of Physics

    This presentation will introduce participants to a groundbreaking project called CraftCells: A Window into Biological Cells. This is the first tool that lets anyone—from researchers to curious students—step inside an accurate 3D model of a cell and see how life is organized at the tiniest scale.

    • 10:15 am   11:30am
    • 141 Loomis Laboratory of Physics

    Did you know the internet is distributed using light? A quantum network uses the smallest possible blips of light, called photons, to share information in a fundamentally different way, based on the concepts of quantum mechanics. This presentation will share the work that led to the launch of the first Public Quantum Network (PQN) at The Urbana Free Library.
