The SciToons program was established at Brown University to involve both STEM and non-STEM students and faculty in creating science animations. This innovative model effectively communicates scientific research and concepts to diverse audiences through storytelling, animation, high-quality multimedia, and artistic expression. The resulting SciToons videos are highly compelling and captivating for a broad range of viewers. The program is led by Dr. Oludurotimi Adetunji, a physicist and the creator of SciToons.

You start to wonder, “Is my neighborhood making me sick?” Unfortunately, it can. Although every community is different, we can address common problems and needs through community health.

Cashless society, gov’t and banks get TOTAL control, it’s coming and we can try to slow it down but it’s gonna happen because of Bible prophecy, Revelation 13: 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
