Researchers at the University of California San Diego orchestrated a dance with high school students at Orange Glen High School in Escondido as a way to explain topological insulators.

The experiment was led by former graduate student Matthew Du and UC San Diego Associate Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry Joel Yuen-Zhou .

"We wanted to show that these complex ideas in theoretical and experimental physics and chemistry are actually not as impossible to understand as you might initially think".
