Science Speaks Chicago
Adler Planetarium
Join the Adler Planetarium Youth Leadership Council for our first-ever Science Speaks Chicago. This all-day event will feature sessions of short, dynamic talks by early-career STEM professionals, focusing on the speakers' work, research, and personal journeys. We will share more information once speaker details are confirmed.
Science Speaks Chicago aims to connect young Chicagoans (ages 11 to 21) with new role models in the sciences. The talks will be focused not only on speaker's research and work in STEM, but also their personal stories of how they got to where they are today. Talks will be hosted in the Adler’s Johnson Star Theater, and more informal “poster sessions” will be hosted throughout the day elsewhere in the museum.
Free registration is open to young people ages 11 to 21 and one guest, and includes access to the event and general admission to the Planetarium. School and organization groups interested in attending this event should contact [email protected].
Age: 11—21
Cost: FREE
Type: In Person
