Join us for this talk as part of the Environmental Studies Brown Bag Series. Dr. Sarah Hewitt will discuss what it takes to become a modern "adventure scientist."

Dr. Sarah Hewitt received her PhD in neuroscience in Dr. Jaideep Bains' lab at the Hotchkiss Brain Institute at the University of Calgary. She is passionate about communicating science to students and the general public. She pursues her interest in science communication by traveling with researchers from a variety of disciplines and producing stories from the field. Through photography, audio, and written stories, she hopes to answer important questions: What is the research about? Why is this work important? Who are the scientists who devote their lives to this work? And what drives them? Her work has appeared in Discover Magazine, BBC Earth, Scientific American, Canadian Geographic, Explore Magazine, and others.

This event is co-sponsored by the Division of Natural Science, CORE Science, and Colgate Outdoor Education.
