DAI Experience Science:
Scientists from the Islamic world helped build the foundation of today’s science. In biology, astronomy, chemistry, physics, optics, and math, Muslim scholars like Ibn Haythem, Ibn Hayyan, AlFazari, and others, made significant contributions to their fields.
Experience Science is a special programme led by “Dr B” (Dr Bahareh Azizi), who’s planned some pretty cool experiments that include strawberry DNA, Oreo moon phases, and bending light! Designed for children ages 10-13, each Experience Science 90 minute session (3:30 - 5 pm), which will be held at the Yarmouk Cultural Centre, includes a look at the role of Muslim scientists in a specific field, what’s happening in that field today and a couple of hands-on experiments.
