Cummings Aerospace plays an important role in supporting HudsonAlpha’s Educational Outreach program. Funding provided by Cummings Aerospace empowered HudsonAlpha to secure equipment, space, and opportunity for everyone from middle-school, high-school, teachers, and undergraduate students. Cummings Aerospace also sponsored a cell culture laboratory for HudsonAl­pha where all audiences explore the science of harvesting cells, for instance one experiment was conducted where the participants extracted DNA from a mammalian cell culture.
