Science Slam: Computing, Anthropology, Astronomy, and More

We’re teaming up with Wonderfest to explore the role of technology in scientific fields like astronomy, anthropology, and more! Through a series of short, informal presentations, you will meet 5 young PhD students committed to increasing public understanding and awareness of science. All of our featured speakers are part of Wonderfest’s Science Envoys program, which helps budding researchers develop public outreach and presentation skills.

Wonderfest’s mission is to inspire and nurture a deep sense of wonder about the world. Wonderfest programs stimulate curiosity, promote careful reasoning, challenge unexamined beliefs, and encourage lifelong learning. Wonderfest achieves these ends through public science gatherings in the San Francisco Bay Area and through online science discourse & video that reach around the world.
