Mushroom Maestros

What can YOU make out of mushrooms?​

Picture

Mention mushrooms, molds, slimes, or other fungi to kids and you're likely to get a bunch of scrunched noses and a chorus of "EWWs!" That all changes when Eben and Gavin start to explain how mushroom technology is changing the way we think about packaging, sculpture, and many other things.
​

Using the game-changing mushroom-based technologies coming out of Ecovative's Mycelium Foundry as the overarching phenomenon, students explore traits, characteristics, and engineering as they ask themselves:

"How and why do traits develop and how can humans use them to solve problems and develop technology?"
