The Untold Stories Project Video

Head into the Academy archives with our Careers in Science interns as they uncover the stories of barrier-breaking Academy staff.

The history of science has long skewed monochrome: White male scientists were celebrated, while others were ignored. The Academy, unfortunately, was no different, overlooking the vital contributions of certain staff simply because of their identity.

Luckily, our archivists and Careers in Science high school interns are here to set the record straight. 

Meet the motivated students and their Academy advisers who dug deep into our archives to bring the inspiring stories of seven former staff scientists, photographers, and educators to life.
