The Ambassadors of the Explore Alliance are individuals who are enabling the general public to understand a deeper level of scientific literacy. We believe that through a greater understanding of science, society will be more enabled to solve some of humanity's greatest challenges.
These Ambassadors are available for lectures, outreach events, and for educational outreach. They are also there to consult with you to answer your questions about their fields of exploration and expertise.
