Pioneers in Science (2009)

In the second installment of this World Science Festival annual event, selected New York City high school students interview Nobel Laureate and co-chair of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, Harold Varmus, and preeminent marine biologist, Sylvia Earle. 

Moderated by Femi Oke, anchor on WNYC's "The Takeaway", our students conduct insightful interviews, showing us how youthful curiosity compels unusually candid conversations and revealing the essence of pioneering science in the process.
