Celebrating Women in Science

February 11th is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. At Seacoast Science Center, we are working to foster the next generation through education, outreach and our conservation work. We’ll celebrate this day on Tuesday, February 18th and 25th with stations set up throughout the Center and visitor programs highlighting different female scientists, who are on the cutting edge of their field; including a few of SSC’s own!

We will also have visitor programs during the day, showcasing several female scientists and their work, including (see individual calendar listings for descriptions):
