“Flip the Fair” is a science fair event in which graduate students are able to share presentations about their research methods and findings with the 5th graders of Roanoke City Public Schools. The intention is to provide a professional development opportunity for graduate-level researchers to gain confidence in their presentation skills while simultaneously empowering and sparking interest in nearly 200 elementary school students. Thank you to VT Psychology graduate students Ya-Yun Chen, Claudia Clinchard, Morgan Lindenmuth, and Jennifer Phillips for participating in the event and sharing their knowledge with the next generation of future scientists.
