My dream career as a science communicator would be doing something like designing exhibits for a science centre or creating curricula for kids at a STEM camp. Any suggestions for organizations that hire scientists for these roles? 🧬🔬🧪#ScienceCommunication #STEMEducation

The fact that they completely miss the mark might make them more funny 😂
