During these conversations, scientists demonstrate research techniques, share new discoveries, and demystify the scientific process.
This educational telepresence creates a "being there" experience and opens a window into science careers. Students interact with and look over the shoulders of scientists who are conducting exciting, real world research.

Program Length: 45 minutes Previsit video: Highlights the scientist's work so you can familiarizing your students with the content.
