Major Event Sponsor

Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Biointeractive had a vendor table Wednesday-Friday and a lunchtime demonstration. They also hosted a Night at the Movies on Wednesday 5-6pm. They showed the premier of a new short film Popped Secret: The Mysterious Origin of Corn. Ten thousand years ago, corn didn’t exist anywhere in the world, and until recently scientists argued vehemently about its origins. Today, the crop is consumed voraciously, by us, by our livestock, and as a major part of processed foods. So where did it come from? This is the story of the genetic changes involved in the transformation of teosinte, a wild grass, into corn. Dr. Ellie Rice, corn biologist and science education fellow at HHMI, was available for Q&A after the film. Refreshments were served and this event concluded prior to the Red Sox game excursion.
