Physics Girl

Season 2017

Physics Girl is a resource for fun physics videos and other materials about physics and topics related to physics. Initially started as a post-baccalaureate "not sure what I'm supposed to do with my life" project, it has grown into a resource for teachers, a source of entertainment for physics nerds, and a way for me to share a passion for physics while advocating for women in the sciences. If you have an idea for a fun physics video, feel free to contact Physics Girl.
