What is the Nerdy Professor Project?My Nerdy Professor formed on a front porch in New Orleans in 2021. One night a group of professional scientists sat around laughing about the latest weird science on the web. The group decided it was a shame that the humorous side of science was kept from the public. That night they made it a mission to change how the public viewed academic research. They decided to create a page containing the nerdy facts (through weekly The Science Fact articles) while also exposing the fun side of the research behind the science (through Weird Science on the Web articles). The Nerdy Professor Project was born. The Nerdy Professor Project, a new initiative from the non-profit Nerdy Professor LLC, is an interactive website dedicated to exploring and learning science through interactive activities, videos, and other tutorials. The project's primary goal is to make science fun and accessible. Science constantly evolves, so staying up-to-date on scientific discoveries and advancements can benefit personal and professional growth.
