There are people around the world who are living in poverty or live in remote villages that do not have electricity or access to healthcare. Many healthcare and scientific tools are expensive and require electricity. Inventor Manu Prakash came up with a solution to help make science and healthcare accessible to everyone, even those who may not be able to afford them. His lab sent foldscope microscopes to kids around the world, which helps them teach others about science and healthcare needs in an affordable way. The tools he makes are created out of everyday objects that are inexpensive to purchase. These tools are saving lives and making science accessible to more and more people.
