Meet our Superstar of STEM, Sally Hurst 🦖 Sally is a palaeontologist, researcher, science communicator, and an education presenter at the AM. As if that’s all not impressive enough, Sally has also just graduated from the Superstars of STEM program run by Science and Technology Australia. This program selects 60 female and non-binary scientists from around Australia to create a cohort of role models to inspire the next generation of scientists. ‘I’m often the first palaeontologist people have ever met, and this may contribute to why so many people who loved dinosaurs as children never pursued palaeontology as a career. Whether your passion was for dinosaurs, space, engineering, or a different field of science, it’s hard to be what you can’t see.’ – Sally Hurst Read more about Sally and the Superstars of STEM program here: https://lnkd.in/gSUu_qP8 #SuperstarsofSTEM
