NCSE welcomes new cohort of Sound Science Fellows - National Center for Science Education

The National Center for Science Education welcomes its third cohort of Sound Science Fellows. The six new fellows join other higher education faculty and museum educators to enhance professional learning opportunities in climate science, evolution, and the nature of science for K-12 science teachers, identify and resolve common misconceptions about those topics, and conduct research to develop best practices for science education. The 2027 fellows are: Tajma Cameron, Assistant Professor of Science Education and Research Faculty at the National Center for the Elimination of Educational Disparities (NCEED) at Morgan State University; Pradeep (Max) Dass, Professor of Science Education at the University of Texas at Tyler; Jennifer Kreps Frisch, Associate Professor and Department Head of Education at the University of Minnesota Duluth; Daniel Pimentel, Assistant Professor of Science Education at the University of Alabama; Jennifer Redfearn, Senior STEM Specialist for the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching; and Ryan Summers, Associate Professor of Science Education at the University of North Dakota.
