X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Young Scientist + U is a <strong>7-session
 </strong>\, <strong>virtual</strong> science-oriented STEAM program\, oper
 ated by <a href="https://www.upluseducation.ca/">U+ Education</a>. Each se
 ssion will feature a theme from a different field of science\, such as phy
 sics\, chemistry\, and biology. Students will learn about interesting fund
 amental science concepts while conducting hands-on experiments\, in turn b
 ecoming junior scientists themselves!&nbsp\; This program is virtual\, but
  materials will be provided. Parent participation is not required.</p>\n<p
 >Registration is required</p>\n<p>Skills learned: Critical thinking\, Crea
