"I want to give everyone the same comfort and fun I derive from science based approaches to life, and the best way to do that is giving it to kids as early in their lives as possible. I have strong positive memories of my local institutions growing up, the Bishop Museum, The Polynesian Cultural Center, the Gulf Coast Exploreum, the Space and Rocket Center, the Columbus Botanical Garden, the Smithsonian... Every kid should have those experiences as close and as accessible as possible. By giving my time here, I get to help make that happen." Amber Nicole Cannan, SEE Board Member

"When my kids were growing up, my wife and I loved to bring them to the SEE Science Center. So many things to look at, discuss, touch, and question. 20 years later and the place is still fantastic. I’m honored to have a chance to serve on the board." ~Pat Smith, SEE Board Member

On Thursday, we had the privilege of hosting representatives from the Museum of Science for a day dedicated to exploring innovation and collaboration. We kicked off at the SEE Science Center, diving into their impactful STEM initiatives and their partnership with Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI) | BioFabUSA to inspire and support the local community. The visit continued with an in-depth tour of our Tissue Foundry, BioFab Foundries, Deep Tissue Characterization Center, and Process Development Labs—an incredible opportunity to highlight the groundbreaking work of our members and the transformative advancements happening in biofabrication. We’re eager to build on this collaboration with the MOS expanding awareness and inspiring future generations in the fields of biofabrication and STEM. Together, we’re shaping the future of science and innovation! EiE - Museum of Science, Boston #Biofabrication #RegenerativeMedicine #STEM #STEMEducation #HandsOnScience #Experientiallearning

"I am a lover of S.T.E.M. because of how it has advanced humanity and how it gives us an opportunity to open our own minds to new possibilities. I chose a career that would allow me to make contributions in science, engineering, and math so that I too could be a part of S.T.E.M evolution.  It is my hope that my service to the SEE board helps to advance New Hampshire and ushers in the next scientists, health care workers, mathematicians, and engineers."
