: From running track and competing on the U.S. National Gymnastics Team to exploring how electrons move through materials like carbon and graphene.
Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer (Ecologist)
: A love for wild strawberries as a child led her to reconnect with her Potawatomi heritage and become a leading plant ecologist and celebrated author.
Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein (Physicist)
: Once dreaming of baseball stardom and training as a dancer, she now studies the universe through astronomy and theoretical physics.
Dr. Raychelle Burks (Chemist)
: Inspired by Agatha Christie and Star Trek, she now develops portable chemical sensors that help solve real-world crimes.
Dr. Esther Lederberg (Microbiologist):
Growing up during the Great Depression, her love of music and literature evolved into a groundbreaking career in biochemistry.
Each biography is thoughtfully paired with a
