“ASTC on Air” spoke with Cristin Dorgelo, the new president and CEO (goo.gl/UYGaTc) of the Association of Science and Technology Centers, during her first official week on the job.
The conversation explored her diverse experience in STEM policy and running Grand Challenges that use science and technology to solve problems, what she’s already learned from people in the science-center field, and some initial impressions about informal science education and the roles ASTC members play locally, regionally, and globally.
She also shared a little about ASTC’s upcoming, yearlong strategic planning process, the crucial role everyone can have in providing input for it, and her commitment to moving ASTC forward together in ways that serve the needs of member organizations, the people who work in them, and all the communities they, in turn, serve around the world.
