The value of curiosity | Emily Graslie | TEDxSacramentoSalon

Emily Graslie, vlogger and Chief Curiosity Correspondent for the Field Museum explains the importance of curiosity for the preservation of natural history, and the value it brings to our everyday lives.

Emily Graslie graduated from The University of Montana in 2011 with a BFA in Painting. During an internship with UMT Zoological Museum in her senior year, she developed a relationship with science that turned into a love of skeletal preparation and the inner workings of natural history museums.

In January of 2013, Emily, with the help of educator Hank Green and producer Michael Aranda, launched, “The Brain Scoop”, a YouTube channel about the inner workings of natural history museums, all aspects of science, biology and the joys of discovery. As The Field Museum’s first-ever Chief Curiosity Correspondent, she uses a variety of new media to share stories with learners all over the world.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
