2023 KAS Annual Meeting Online Program
Published: 10-04-2023


 Junior Academy Collaboration


It is very exciting to have the Junior Academy joining us for the second year.  It is especially gratifying for this to happen here at my alma mater - Go Norse!  We have created this opportunity for middle and high school students to see the work of undergraduates, graduates, and faculty members.  I believe that it is important to begin making connections to the type of research that interests us and to the people who are doing that research.  Let us use this opportunity to guide the next generation of scientists towards their future scientific ventures.
 
The support we receive from KAS is invaluable and the mechanism that makes this collaboration happen.  Please help support these budding scientists and welcome them to KAS and NKU!

2022 KAS Annual Meeting Online Program

 Junior Academy Collaboration


Greetings!
You may have noticed that some of the scientists attending the KAS meeting this year look a bit younger than what we usually see.  The good news is that the Kentucky Junior Academy of Science students are now joining with us as we have combined the KJAS spring meeting with the KAS fall meeting.  This is a great opportunity for middle and high school students to see college students and faculty in action and help to guide them in their future scientific research.
We have been assisted this year by Morehead State University’s Center for STEM+eXcellence in making new connections to local middle and high school students and teachers.  Many of the workshops this year are a direct result of this amazing partnership. We at KAS are so grateful to Jen Carter and her dedicated team for developing a fantastic program for our Junior Academy scientists!
We want to thank everyone who is supporting the Junior Academy and encourage you to make them feel welcome.
