“Ira never ceases to amaze me with his drive, creativity, and passion for bringing science to the public. His brings his enthusiasm, humor, intelligence, and questioning mind to every interview, program, or presentation he does. He is a gift to those of us who are working to convince non-scientists of the value and importance of what scientists do.”
