Meet Silas Miller, 2024 Scientific Teaching Fellow
“I have always found teaching and mentorship to be incredibly fulfilling—I want to spend my time and effort helping others to satisfy their curiosities and achieve their goals.”
Meet Rebecca Alcock, STEM Public Service Fellows Alum
“The entirety of my PhD has centered on community-engaged engineering, so I frequently call on the methods, theories, etc. I learned in the program to engage most effectively with my community partners.”
Meet Nicole DesJardins, 2024 Scientific Teaching Fellow
“Science plays an incredibly important role in all of our lives, whether we realize it or not. I like teaching because it gives me the opportunity to help students become more scientifically literate.”
Meet Chelsea Crooks, STEM Public Service Fellows Alum
“In my current work identifying policy solutions for the inclusion of pregnant and lactating people in clinical trials, the frameworks that I learned in PSF were helpful in considering the stakeholders that we wanted to include.”
Meet Yiran Hou, 2024 Scientific Teaching Fellow
“This program has helped me develop the mindset and skillset for teaching. It has also allowed me to see the research component of teaching.”
Meet Beth Meyerand, ARMP Facilitator
“It is incredibly gratifying to hear from participants that what they learned in ARMP has made a tremendously positive impact in how they mentor—that the concepts they learned were totally new to them and are now indispensable.”
