Jane Snell Copes

Science Outside the Box
Professor Sepoc

I love doing science because it's hard, beautiful, exciting and important. I have a collection of chemical elements, and I carry a tiny periodic table in my wallet. Finding out something new to the world is exciting, but showing a simple chemical reaction to a child who has never seen it is even better.
