Let's Talk Cancer is a free, in-person symposium for Grade 11 and 12 students, hosted by Let's Talk Science and the Canadian Cancer Society - Research Information Outreach Team (RIOT).

This event will provide students with the opportunity to interact with and learn from leading experts in the field of stem cells, while learning about this field with interactive activities.

In this activity, we will learn all about gases, pressure and the states of matter by making alka-seltzer rockets!

In this activity, we will use everyday materials to make our own bones!

Put out a candle using carbon dioxide created by mixing vinegar and baking soda and learn about the states of matter and invisible gases!

This activity will show us what vinegar does to calcium carbonate, a molecule that makes up sea shells, corals, and parts of your bones!

Learn about electricity and magnets and how they influence each other by creating your own electromagnet!

This activity will teach us about magnets and how they can overcome gravity by creating a magnetic kite!

Learn about the density of liquids and the production of gases in this cool activity!

Students learn about daily and seasonal changes through group discussion, songs, drawing and interactive demonstrations.

This activity explores the structures of plant and animal cells via a dramatic skit, a matching activity, and creating a 3D model.

Students see how different amounts of air and water in a space can change the way we hear sounds.
