About This Lesson

How can a lesson in quantum mechanics benefit from an understanding of "first date" psychology? Kate the Chemist explains. From NBC Nightly News to the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Kate has been a fixture on the talk circuit of late, blowing things up whenever she gets the chance. But her secret is not in the pyrotechnics. As a professor at the University of Texas at Austin, Kate Biberdorf uses her high energy and a keen awareness of how people learn as tools to engage students with complex subjects.  During a recent visit to NSF, Biberdorf shared insights into her success bringing chemistry to a global audience.

Stay tuned for the full interview later this week!
