Stories from the Field

At NatureBridge, we show students that scientists do more than just wear white coats in a lab. By introducing young people to the diversity of both scientists and science field work, we hope to inspire a long-lasting connection to the natural world.

While in the backcountry, Alcoa Scholars collaborated to design and implement a science investigation. As a part of the closing celebrations, each group shared the results of their research in a short presentation. 

This week we welcomed 33 Alcoa Scholars to our Crane Flat Campus in Yosemite National Park. Read about what they've been up to as they prepare for backpacking and science investigations in the backcountry!
