Karen is leading a major initiative whose goal is to transform the culture of and training opportunities from kindergarteners to postdocs and every student stage in between at NMNH. One of the primary goals is to build partnerships with other institutions to provide opportunities for their students at NMNH to learn about science research, collections, exhibits, education and outreach, and museum management. If you are interested in partnering with us, contact Karen.
