Mission
Inside a Scientist's Suitcase is an NSF-funded education/public
outreach (EPO) project that profiles scientists and the clothes and
gadgets they carry when they travel. By sharing the personal narratives
of scientists from all backgrounds, the video series seeks to inspire
students to explore careers in the STEM fields by providing contemporary
role models.
Each video interview is edited to produce a three-minute glimpse into a
scientist's life and why science is fun. The video series will be
available as a YouTube channel and on this dedicated website. Further
dissemination will be through teacher networks and established EPO
programs such as Expanding Your Horizons.
