Heather champions science with
Magic with Molecules
Heather is a long-term volunteer with the made-at-McMaster show that introduces audiences of all ages to the magic of chemistry. Magic with Molecules is the flagship community outreach initiative of the Department of Chemistry & Chemical Biology. Volunteers like Heather combine education with entertainment to build science literacy and inspire the next generation of scientists.
In this age of online videos, I think it's really important for kids to see science happen in person and have their questions answered by real scientists and not simply just talking heads on a screen. By doing outreach programs, we're engaging with youth, making science fun and exciting, and hopefully lighting a spark in our next generation of scientists.
