Our Research is Golden: Biodesign Tent at the ASU Homecoming Block Party

What’s new at ASU?

Come early to the ASU Homecoming game against Washington and enjoy the block party – the biggest event of the fall semester! There’s so much to do and see at the party under 100 tents: try on a medieval Spanish helmet, see the snake collection, kick back and get reacquainted with other alumni, and take in a parade.

Make a DNA necklace

Uncover the scientist in you, or in your child, by extracting DNA from strawberries. Leave with a necklace that holds visible DNA.

See how germs spread

With a handful of lotion and glitter and a few handshakes, see how easily germs can spread. You’ll never have to be reminded to wash your hands again!

Our science is golden

Get a fun introduction to the exciting research of the Biodesign Institute from a new portable metabolism-tracking device to clever sources for alternative fuels and much more. Handle items from our labs and learn about our broad range of research inspired by nature and aimed at improving health, protecting lives and sustaining our planet.

Improve your game experience

For visiting our tent, we’ll make your game time more comfortable with a foldable seat cushion (available while supplies last). Enter a drawing to win a stay at Camp Tontazona and other golden prizes!
