This February we are honoring black scientists who have changed the world of science and education, and who have inspired young people of color to pursue opportunities in the STEM fields. We want to recognize the brilliant black scientists from history who paved the way for the advancements we have today, and the volunteers, industry leaders, educators, and students who bring diverse perspectives and innovative ideas to CEF. All month we will be sharing stories from influential black scientists on our Twitter and Facebook, and encourage you to follow along to learn more about the great minds who have brought the scientific community to new heights while ushering in a future with opportunities for all.
