Welcome, Friend! I'm Dr. Shenell Tolson.
You may know me as one-fifth of the STEM-tastic STEMbassy crew, where STEM ambassadors come together to discuss groundbreaking research, innovations, and the latest happenings in the world of science.
Biologist | Science Communicator | STEM Advocate
As a biologist specializing in human health and risk assessment, I evaluate the impact of various compounds on both the human body and the environment. My work bridges the gap between scientific research and public health education, ensuring that communities have access to accurate, science-based knowledge.
I use social media and digital platforms to engage the public in STEM education and science communication, covering topics such as:
Public health & modified health behaviors
Environmental health
Encouraging STEM literacy among children of the diaspora
I am particularly passionate about increasing STEM engagement for children—and have authored several STEM-focused reading and activity books to promote early literacy and science education.
