In this episode, GeekMom Nicole Wakelin gets to do a face-to-face interview with the kids on the Lemelson-MIT InvenTeam from Nashua North High School in Nashua, New Hampshire.

She talks with some of the kids on the team as well as their advisors about how they developed their idea, what they're going to do next, and how other kids can foster their love of science and invention from grade school right through college. |
