About Anja Scholze

I am neurobiologist by training who is passionate about democratizing access to science and empowering everyone to explore living systems as a creative and problem solving medium. At The Tech Interactive in Silicon Valley I lead the design and development of interactive museum experiences to engage visitors in biotechnology, health, and the life sciences. Currently, I am focused on bringing to life a new type of museum space, a community bio-makerspace, that houses one-of-a-kind hands-on activities at the intersection of biology, design and technology.
