The Center is committed to bringing our research out of the laboratory and into classrooms and public spaces - not only sharing our research and love of chemistry, but teaching our scientists to be excellent scientific communicators. In each of our activities we strive to teach chemistry in an exciting way and to bring our work to diverse audiences.
