Project Exploration is a nonprofit science education organization that works to ensure communities traditionally overlooked by science – particularly minority youth and girls – have access to personalized experiences with science and scientists.
Founded in 1999 by paleontologist Paul Sereno and educator Gabrielle Lyon, Project Exploration seeks to expand access to science. Our youth programs impact the lives of hundreds of students each year by fostering a long-term involvement in science, and are supported by public programs that provide a window into science in action through exhibits, online initiatives, and contributions to the field of science in out-of-school time.
