Breaking Today's Barriers to Nurture Tomorrow's Researchers

About us

By teens, for teens: UpNext Scientists is a virtual organization created in 2023 by a high school student that realized the prevalence of access barriers within enrichment opportunities. In order to combat this, we provide middle, high school, and undergraduate students with free, virtual, and no-cut research opportunities that stress creativity and understanding.

    We have some exciting news for you: Our Visual Research Department is excited to announce our first ever research competition, the Visual Lab Quest!  Through this 5-week virtual program held every Sunday at 10:00-10:40 AM PST from November 17-December 15, participants will learn how to research about a lab experiment in a STEAM subject of their choice, how to aesthetically showcase their findings on a research presentation, and how to confidently speak about the project to a panel of judges.  At the end of the 5 weeks, the presentations will be judged and cash prizes will be awarded - regardless of the decision, all presentations will be published on our website and social media, and all participants will receive volunteer hours and certificates.  This program is perfect for those of you wanting to grow your graphic design and creativity skills, improve your presentation skills, and dive deep into the world of STEM, Research, and Experiments.  Applications close in around a month, November 9, 2024, at 11:59 PM PST for notification by November 13, 2024 at 11:59 PM PST. Our Orientation session will be on November 17, 2024, at 10:00 AM PST, through Zoom.  Here is the link which will take you to the application: https://lnkd.in/gdH5zcTh

    HEYY FUTURE SCIENTISTS! Up Next Scientists is thrilled to announce our first Writers’ Lab, a 6-week long virtual program designed to provide one on one mentorship to students just starting off in the field of scientific literature. Participants of this selective program will be mentored by members of our Literary Research commission in the process of creating a piece of scientific literature, whether it be a systematic review, experimental research article, or more. Besides the program orientation and conclusion meeting, lessons will be asynchronous, and participants will schedule 1on1 meetings with their paired mentor at times convenient for them. In the end, we will publish the articles on our website as well as help the writer find publication on other peer reviewed, formal journals! Look through tinyurl.com/writerslab1 for more information regarding details, timings, and benefits (like getting volunteer hours!) as well as the short application! Applications close September 23, 2024 at 11:59 PDT for notification by September 25, 2024 at 11:59 PDT. Our program orientation will be September 28, 2024, from 7:00-7:30 AM PDT, through Zoom. Be on the lookout for CIR4 applications soon and email with any questions!

    In light of our 501(c)(3) status, (and tax-deductible donations!), Donate to our GoFundMe now! The money that we collect will be used to expand our organization: Zoom Pro (to accommodate for more than 100 cohort members), Textbooks for our board members (so that the quality of what we are teaching can be more concrete), Website domain fees (so that we can publish the wonderful work of our cohort members more officially, upgrading from our google sites domain), 501(c)(3) application and maintaining fees, publishing our research journals in hardbound, and to buy access to research journals (like PubMed) so that our members can have a wide variety of resources to analyze as they start off their journey in science! Every dollar helps. If you cannot donate, just sharing around the attached flyer would mean a lot as well! Thank you so much for your support. OUR GOFUNDME: https://gofund.me/dece3a90
