ABOUT YTS
The Young Tassie Scientists (YTS) program aims to broaden the profile of science and engineering to students and the general public throughout Tasmania and to provide insights into working as a scientist or engineer.
YTS involves early career researchers and scientists who are passionate about their work and can connect with a range of audiences. They present talks and activities based on their work to schools and communities around Tasmania, and are widely profiled ambassadors for science, engineering and technology during National Science Week.
