What to Expect

From the telephone to the microwave oven, Cambridge has participated in the invention of a surprising number of everyday objects. Email, Radar, guidance chips, and the rubber firehose all came from the same ten-block radius that hosted the flagship of the Human Genome Project, pioneers of ‘the cloud’, and the advent of Zipcar. Discover why Kendall Square is called the most innovative square mile on the planet as we walk past offices of Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, and the world’s most important research sites for genomics, cancer, and artificial intelligence. Science geeks will be in heaven, and for those who don’t read science journals, prepare to have your mind blown. This tour delves into the cutting-edge of CURRENT science to show you what the history books will look like in twenty years.
