Meet the team behind 30 years of science education.
Writers, artists, animators, coders, educators, scientists — the people who turn complex science into something millions of learners love.
If you've used Learn.Genetics, you've experienced Dr. Louisa Stark's vision in action. For 25+ years, she led the Genetic Science Learning Center, making science accessible to 18M+ learners a year. On 5/23, our 30th anniversary gala celebrates her legacy. Tickets here: www.sslc.utah.edu/events
