Founded and produced by the MIT Museum, the Cambridge Science Festival is taking place in-person across several venues across the city.
Explore our contributions to the festivities below: all of these events are free, but require registration, as space is limited.
Wearable Lab: Smart Clothing For A Healthier World
The Foundry @ 4pm ET
Find out how tomorrow’s clothing will help us stay healthy. Bridging the fashion and medical worlds, this panel explores developments in wearable health-clothing – from garments that monitor our vitals to fabrics that respond to changing temperatures, from the aesthetics of prosthetics to the wearable innovations we won’t be able to live without.
Panelists:
Svetlana Boriskina (META Research Lab/MIT)
Chrissy Glover (MIT Beaver Works)
Nataliya Kosmyna (MIT Media Lab)
Moderator: Michelle Farrington (AFFOA)
Electric Skin: The Scene

Join Boston Fashion Week and Cambridge Science Festival at The Foundry for a fashion show without a catwalk. Immerse yourself in the designs that will shape the next generation of wearable tech.

Expect DJs, digital art and a cash bar.
Exhibiting designers and artists include our stand with the brain sensing prototypes…to be tried on!
