You may not completely master the lesson, but you’ll love the lab.” — NY Times. For all ages
David Maiullo has been featured in the New York Times, on NPR, on Science Friday, and has appeared in science shows on the Weather Channel, National Geographic, the Science Channel, and Discovery Channel. Among his many awards are the Lifetime Achievement Award from the NJ Science Teachers Association and the President’s Award from Rutgers University.
