Are you a female early career researcher who is passionate about science and eager to inspire the next generation? Welcome to STEM Seedlings, a dynamic initiative designed to ignite young minds and foster a love for STEM in Scotland’s primary schools.

As part of the STEM Seedlings programme, you will be trained to develop a workshop based on your research field and deliver it in Scottish primary schools in Autumn 2025. Some examples of past projects can be found below. For more information about the programme goals, eligibility criteria, and timeline, please click the “About Us” button below.
