Who are We?

The Scientific Teen (TST) is a global youth media organization dedicated to encouraging scientific awareness and education for students, parents, and educators. Articles covering topics in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math are written by young adults ages 13-19. Monthly publications are made available online as well as in a printed magazine, which is sent to participating schools and programs all around the world.
