Quantum Biology Lab’s math camp sparks STEM interest in young students

Quantum Zeitgeist5 min read

The Quantum Biology Lab’s Quantum Math Camp was created to ensure students, especially Black and Brown students in underresourced schools, see themselves in science early and often. Held at Feltonville School of Arts & Sciences in Philadelphia, the camp equips rising first through seventh grade students with a love of math and an introduction to quantum science.

Rising first through seventh grade students explored quantum science and advanced mathematics this summer through the Quantum Biology Lab’s Quantum Math Camp, culminating in a full-day trip to Howard University. Designed to support STEM interest in young learners, particularly Black and Brown students, the camp offered hands-on activities like building edible models of quantum entanglement and observing shape memory metals. Dr. James Murray, Intern Coordinator and K-12 Liaison for the QBL, recalls that “If I had been here as an undergrad,” referring to Howard University, “maybe I would have done something different,” a sentiment driving his vision…
