Ever wonder why your pet does that one weird thing?
So do the scientists at Darwin's Ark, a community science nonprofit engaging dogs, cats, and their people in scientific discovery.
Together with the Broad Discovery Center and Darwin's Ark, we invite you to explore the latest pet research at our Pet Science Fair!
Come to the MIT Museum to ask an expert researcher about the evolutionary mysteries behind your pet's quirks and create your own pet enrichment puzzle.
Then, take a 5-minute stroll to the Broad Discovery Center to learn about the population genetics of cats, sample gathering technology, and more. Plus, learn how you can contribute your pet's data to advance our understanding of pet genetics, health, and behavior.
