In September 2021, Tokman and Kyrilov, professors of applied math and of computer science and engineering, respectively, opened Kids Discovery Station in Merced. It offers interactive exhibits and educational programs designed to spur curiosity and to inspire children to explore our diverse world. In its first year, the children’s museum hosted more than 18,500 young and grownup visitors, including more than 3,500 local schoolchildren who came to the museum on field trips.
