Dave talks to the founder and CEO of Generation Genius, Jeff Vinokur. "Dr. Jeff" aka "The Dancing Scientist" has been wowing audiences for the past decade with his signature dance moves coupled with dramatic scientific demonstrations. Vinokur's start up, Generation Genius, produces educational video modules along with support materials for K-8 classrooms and distance learners.
His standards based lessons bring to life complex ideas from all branches of science and makes them accessible to a young audience. Vinokur is a real scientist with a PhD in biochemistry from UCLA.
How he went from being a kid doing DIY experiments in his garage (warning, don't try what he did at home!) to appearing on national TV on shows like Today and Rachel Ray is an inspiring odyssey of perseverance.
