We should all have training in #science 🧪 not because everybody has to be a scientist but because everybody should learn how to think critically! Bring science to kids!
Why Kids NEED STEM Early! 🔬🚀
STEM isn’t just about science—it’s about thinking critically, solving problems, and understanding how the world works. Start them young. Watch them thrive. #FutureScientists #CriticalThinking #JuniorEinsteinsScienceClub #handsonlearning #STEMlearning

The human brain has a little over 170 billion cells. It's a Herculean task to categorize them all.
A group of scientists just released an impressively detailed cell atlas. 🧪
