10:00AM-5:00PM

Free & Open to All (humans)

Learn all about your cats and dogs at the Broad Discovery Center and MITMuseum in concert with the Darwin’s Ark team at the Broad Institute. We’ll have drop in activities and snacks throughout the day, plus you’ll have a chance to sign up your cat or dog to be part of our community science project. Bring your curiosity but please, leave your 4-legged friends at home. 

1:00-3:00PM: Darwin’s Ark Poster Session: learn about how Broad Technology Spaces revolutionized our understanding of genetics to develop Darwin Ark’s sample gathering process, population genetics of cats, the results of our dog environment study, and working pets.
