Application: STEM Role Models for Transformative Change

The National Girls Collaborative Project, in partnership with the MacArthur Foundation and the New York Hall of Science, is hosting STEM Role Models for Transformative Change: MacArthur Fellows Dialogues, a free, youth-centered event for high school-age girls at the New York Hall of Science in New York City on October 24, 2026, 12:30-4:30 pm

Participants will hear from three 2024 MacArthur Fellows: Nicola Dell, Kristina Douglass, and Martha Muñoz, in a live panel moderated by members of NGCP's Youth Advisory Board. The Fellows will talk candidly about their paths into science, the obstacles they have faced, and their lives outside of work. After the panel, participants will take part in hands-on workshops connected to the Fellows' research.

Space is limited. Apply today!

All applications will be reviewed September 25, 2026, and selected participants will be invited to register.
