Michigan Institute for Research in Astrophysics Presents: Conversations on Inclusion and Equity
Dr. Jackie Faherty, Sr. Scientist, Department of Astrophysics, American Museum of Natural History
“Senior Scientist and Senior Education Manager at the American Museum of Natural History: A non-traditional research and outreach path”
The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) is a unique academic and education environment which hosts large numbers of domestic and international tourists as well as public school students from NYC and the metro area throughout the year. As a senior scientist and senior education manager at AMNH I am in a unique position to develop and disseminate scientific material to a plethora of visitors. In this talk I will highlight a number of initiatives that AMNH is involved in that promote equity and inclusion in STEM fields through unique informal education activities.
