Scientist Spotlights feature University of Michigan scientists sharing their cutting-edge research.

Only for the curious! Visit with U-M scientists and participate in engaging, hands-on activities to learn about their cutting-edge research. These presenters have been trained to share their research through the U-M Museum of Natural History Science Communication Fellows program, which connect scientists to the public. 

Free and open to the public. Suitable for upper-elementary through adult visitors.

Funded in part by the National Science Foundation
