Dr. Kate Biberdorf, hailed as the next Bill Nye, will present two shows Saturday, Jan. 11, at The Jefferson School in Georgetown. The shows are open to the public and will begin at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Shes sometimes known as Dr. B, or Kate the Chemist, Chemistry Professor & Science Entertainer, and she is shattering the traditional image that keeps some students intimidated or bored by science.

I love explosions, mixing things up together and seeing what will happen, she told KidsPost from her office in Austin, Texas. Im always messy, always dirty. And I love my job. Her approach leaves audiences with a positive, memorable impression of science, while diminishing the stigma around women in the field.

Introducing Sussex County families to Dr. Kate Biberdorfs exciting and engaging approach to science is a perfect hosting opportunity for The Jefferson School, said Head of School Connie Hendricks. Our school philosophy of learning by asking questions and hands-on problem solving is perfectly aligned with Kates approach.
