Reframing Science and Not-So-Scary Spiders

Queer Science!

In our interview with Dr. Chris Hawn, ecologist, and professor at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, we learned about their work in public science, science communication, environmental justice, and the intersection of those topics in their project "Spidey Senser." We also discussed how their black, nonbinary identity shapes their view of science and society (note: listener discretion is advised).
