Science Storytellers

Science Storytellers We connect kids and scientists in a casual, one-on-one setting, and let kids tell us what science is all about.

Meet a scientist, have a conversation, and share your story with Science Storytellers, a public engagement program that gives kids the chance to interview scientists, just like professional journalists do—and then to share their science stories. Meet a scientist, have a conversation, and share your story with Science Storytellers, a new program at AAAS Family Science Days founded by science writer

and educator Jennifer Cutraro. This program is made possible through a partnership with The Open Notebook and the generous support of the Burroughs Wellcome Fund.
