Greetings!
Can you explain a quantum concept to a family audience in just three minutes? Can you demonstrate one with a hands-on activity? Win prizes, fame, and a trip to Boston in early April for the 2019 National Quantum
Matters™ Science Communication Competition. The two competition categories:
1. TALK Researchers: Create a fabulous, jaw-dropping, three-minute talk for a family audience explaining a key
concept related to your research in quantum science or technology and how it might matter to us in the future.
2. DEMONSTRATE Individuals and teams (researchers or not): Design a fabulous, ah-ha! producing,
hands-on activity for Museum visitors, communicating a key concept in quantum science or technology and how it might matter to us in the future.
Finalists will receive expert coaching, $200 stipends, travel to Boston, cash prizes ($100 – $400), and photos and video! Entries are due Friday,
March 1. The Finals will be held Friday, April 5 and Saturday, April 6 before a live audience at the Museum of Science!
