Outreach
Educational lesson plan inspired by scientific research:
Through the SciREN organization, my labmates and I created a classroom lesson plan for local educators so students can learn about our research. We've participated in both SciREN Coast and Triangle outreach events throughout the years and disseminated this work to hundreds of educators across the state of North Carolina (and beyond).
Here's a folder with our compiled lesson plan and activity materials, and a short introduction video for students.
Selected additional community outreach events:
North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences Reptile and Amphibian Day
WinSPIRE organization lesson plan leader
Involvement in a neuroscience after-school science program
Served as a local North Carolina elementary and high school science fair judge
I've led various workshops for high school and undergraduate students on the following topics:
Science communication
Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program information
CV and resume building
How to choose a major
