  1. Stimulating Attitudes of Inquiry When does a scientist become a scientist? It is not when a person knows many facts and even understands in depth some aspect of the natural world. I would suggest the transition occurs when curiosity about a phenomenon leads to an inquiry for new knowledge. This can occur in a person with little or lots of knowledge about a subject. It is an attitude of inquiry.James Bryant Conant Thinkers are not limited by what they know, because they can always increase what they know. Rather, they're limited by what puzzles them, because there's no way to become curious about something that doesn't puzzle you.Daniel Quinn University of Delaware HHMI Program Map Coordinated by Serves HHMI Program Biological Sciences Chemistry and Biochemistry Chemical Engineering Medical Technology Computer and Information Sciences Animal and Plant Science Delaware Biotechnology Institute Hal White, Program Director David Usher, Assistant Director Cherie Dotson, NUCLEUS Coordinator Lisa Robinson, Staff Assistant Laura Reiter, Senior Secretary Involves Graduate TAs Undergraduates Faculty K-12Outreach Design and Supervise Take Become Prepared for Join Can study Investigative Laboratories Computational Biology NUCLEUS Access Program PBL Peer Facilitators Become Includes Mentor Attend Analytical Chemistry Course Faculty Fellows Science Education Seminars Prepares for Requires Encourages Research Experiences Participate in ASBMB Undergraduate Poster Competition Faculty Advisory Board Significant part of Anne Robinson, Susan Groh, Thomas Beebe, Daniel Simmons, Carlton Cooper.
