Carrie Boyce

Carrie Boyce is the Executive Director of the Royal Canadian Institute for Science (RCIScience), Canada’s oldest scientific society that’s been connecting people in Canada with science since 1849. With over a decade’s experience working in the field of science communication and public engagement, it’s fair to say Carrie’s become a Jack of all trades, master of some… Originally from Northern Ireland, she moved to Cambridge, England to pursue a degree in Natural Sciences, before working for organisations like the University of Cambridge, the Royal Society of Chemistry and Cancer Research UK. Eager for life’s next adventure, she moved to Canada in 2017 and has been happily working with RCIScience (and drinking maple syrup) ever since. Carrie is also a co-founder and Executive Producer of Science is a Drag, an award-winning, science-themed drag show by and for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, and co-steward of the SciCommTO network.
