Foldscope is known as the paper microscope.

It was designed to be portable and durable, while performing on par with conventional research microscopes (140X magnification and 2 micron resolution). 

Foldscope gives students the opportunity to magnify curiosity. Students may use the kits to collect samples, prepare slides, explore advanced microscopy techniques and more!
