UW Science Expeditions is a part of a multi-day campus-wide science open house each spring. As a public, land-grant research university, Science Expeditions gives members from our community to learn about the work being done to improve health through research and training.

In previous years, attendees made bouncy balls, grew crystals, played a pharmacy video game, looked through microscopes at fruit flies, learned about the history of pharmacy, toured real scientists’ labs, made fake medicine capsules, gowned and masked for a tour of the sterile products laboratory, and much more!
