Watch: How to be a scientist

Forget about those old stereotypes of scientists wearing bottle cap glasses and being old men in laboratories, they're not true. Rapper Coma Niddy tells the world that it doesn't matter who you, you too can be a scientist. He does, however, say that you have to be curious and never give up.

The video was produced as part of a PBS Digital Studios project, and Comma Niddy is science educator, who raps on everything from nanotechnology to dark matter.
