![]() ![]() ![]() I’m also a Community Science Fellow in AGU’s Thriving Earth Exchange, and an MsC student in NCSU’s School for Marine, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences. I am an educator, researcher, evaluator, and science communicator with the Museum of Life & Science in Durham, NC. ![]() ![]() Max Cawley – Director: Climate Research and Engagement My teaching philosophy is centered on cultivating skepticism and wonder as tools for seeking understanding and making the world safe for human differences. In my spare time, I like to be outdoors and do experimental archaeology with lithics and other early human technologies. I am an educational generalist, though I am especially interested in evolutionary biology and human origins. My experience as a science educator has included handling animals, exploring waterways, building a historically accurate bark house and palisade, checking hives (pictured), and most recently, managing in-person and online facilitated experiences for The Lab! I earned my degree in Anthropology from UNC Charlotte and have since found joy as an informal educator in the museum world, where I can teach authentically, inclusively, and experientially. Kids (and adults!) are wired to learn – all we need is some inspiration! Peregrine Bratschi – Associate Program Manager: The Lab I believe that a strong science background helps people become better citizens and better consumers of knowledge. I am proud to be able to serve the people in my home state, using informal education to improve scientific literacy and critical thinking skills. I have worked in the informal science education field ever since, serving students and families through a variety of diverse STEM programs. I fell in love with science education while teaching kids how to dance through the Moon phases and launch Alka-Seltzer rockets. When I was in graduate school for Ecology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I started teaching informal science education at the Morehead Planetarium and Science Center. ![]()
