Marc Humphrey earned his BS in physics and applied mathematics at Western Michigan University, where he was recognized with a Goldwater fellowship, and his PhD in atomic physics at Harvard University. While at Harvard he was awarded the Harold White Prize for Outstanding Teaching and the Certificate for Distinction in Teaching. Over the past ten years, he has focused on explaining science to nonscientists during his day jobs at the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the International Atomic Energy Agency. He also served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mali.
Paul Pancella has been a physics professor at Western Michigan University since 1990. He received his BA in physics with honors (summa cum laude) from St. Louis University. He earned a PhD in nuclear physics from Rice University in Houston. Paul works in a variety of ways to promote science literacy in the general public.
Nora Berrah earned her Diplรดme d'Etude Supรฉrieure (DES) in theoretical physics from the Facultรฉ des Sciences, USTHB, d'Alger, Algeria, and her PhD in atomic physics from the University of Virginia. She is presently a professor and head of the Physics Department at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, and was a distinguished faculty scholar at Western Michigan University. She specializes in the study of the interaction of photons with atoms, molecules, and nano-systems. She promotes diversity nationally and internationally to increase the number of women and all minorities in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. She is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the recipient of the 2014 Davisson-Germer Prize.
