Brain Scoop beginnings
Emily Graslie is the Field’s first-ever Chief Curiosity Correspondent. In 2013, as a volunteer at a zoological museum in Montana, together with YouTube educator Hank Green, Emily created and launched The Brain Scoop to share museum work with a broad audience. A few months later, the series found a permanent home here at the Field. Emily and The Brain Scoop team continue to create educational videos that transport you to the Museum from anywhere in the world.
