Corey Gray, a member of the Siksika Nation and part of the Blackfoot Confederacy, will share his experience as an Indigenous person in STEM. Gray works for Caltech’s LIGO project, which made the first direct detection of gravitational waves in 2015. A physicist and science communicator, he partnered with his mother, Sharon Yellowfly, to translate astrophysics materials into the Blackfoot language. Beyond his work, he enjoys backpacking, dancing, and kayaking, and serves as a juror for the National Academy of Sciences’ Excellence in Science Communication award.
