During this online workshop, we were joined by SciStarter for a discussion about how to get involved in Acts of Science: CONNECTED. SciStarter is rallying thousands of volunteers worldwide for Citizen Science Month 2026. From snapping photos of nature, identifying animals online, helping NASA classify space telescope images, contributing towards medical discoveries, and so much more; there is a way for everyone, everywhere, at any time, to contribute. SciStarter is providing everything you need to make it easy to connect your community directly with real research, all while contributing to 2.50 million Acts of Science in one month to celebrate America’s 250th birthday.
