Vandenbosch: Cultivating curiosity, and embracing a sense of wonder

During this season of reflection, I am thankful for curious people of all ages. I am fortunate to be surrounded by students and scientists who are driven to uncover how things work in the natural world. There is no doubt that as we set out to explore the inner workings of microbes, plants and animals, we gain knowledge that we can apply in ways that will continue to change the world. But long before we get to the point where we apply knowledge, we have to wonder. I celebrate that sense of wonder.
