LIST researchers will hold 3 booths to present their activities:

"From Heat to Watts: Materials Marvels"

Come to our stand to have fun with magical materials! They convert heat into electricity and vice versa. Join us to produce electricity from heat and power our Christmas lights! Come and make a mini fridge or a heater! Our materials will keep you warm in winter and cool you down in summer.
