We look forward to seeing you (virtually) in celebration of Nikola Tesla’s 164th birthday.
About our guest speaker:
Prof. Michael Pravica is an experimental condensed matter physicist and spectroscopist who earned his Bachelor’s from Caltech and his Masters and Ph.D. degrees from Harvard University. He is currently a professor or physics at the University of Nevada Las Vegas where he is developing useful hard x-ray photochemistry as a means to drive novel chemistry by harnessing the highly ionizing and highly penetrating properties of hard x-rays (>7keV).

How Tesla’s ideas may help solve COVID-19
Nikola Tesla taught humanity about the importance of resonance in nature. Like opening a door with the right key, by knowing and applying the resonance frequencies of natural systems, one could enable dramatic changes in these systems for better or for worse. For the past three months, I have been developing three ideas pertaining to defeating the novel coronavirus and patients suffering from COVID-19 using resonant x-rays and sound waves as a means to 1: damage the coronavirus in the hopes of creating a high quality vaccine” and 2: help improve lung function in COVID-19 patients. This talk will describe these ideas and discuss how they relate to Tesla’s concepts of resonance.

STARTING A TESLA CLUB AT YOUR SCHOOL

STARTING A TESLA CLUB AT YOUR SCHOOL
HOW CAN YOU ORGANIZE A TESLA CLUB AT YOUR SCHOOL?

  • How can Tesla Science Foundation (TSF) help?
  • The first step would be to introduce your students to Tesla’s life and work through classroom presentations or a School assembly, depending on the best fit for your school.
  • TSF would bring a display made by Tesla Museum and TSF and lead the initial presentation.
  • After that, we will consult with interested students and faculty to prepare a mission statement and organize the club.
  • WE HAVE A HOST OF RESOURCES FOR HELPING YOU TO EXPAND YOUR TESLA CLUB’S EXPOSURE AND MEMBERSHIP, INCLUDING:
  • A PLAY: TSF will supply the script for ‘Tesla Past, Present and Future’
  • TESLA TRAVELING EXHIBIT: Tesla exhibits can be obtained by TSF from the Tesla Museum in Belgrade, Serbia
  • ACHIVEMENT EXHIBITS: Art, Science and literary achievements can be rewarded by TSF through medals and certificates
  • COMMUNITY EVENINGS: Community events can be organized in partnerships with TSF with the possibility of student work exhibits
  • TESLA TALK TV: Students have the opportunity to be invited onto TSF’s Tesla Talk TV channel
  • QUIZ MATERIALS: Provided quizzez about the life and work of Nikola Tesla offers students a chance to earn participation certificates

RECOGNITION: Students have the opportunity to present their work at our January and July Conferences in New York and Philadelphia.
