Here's A Little About Us

In November 2022, we set out to create The Curious Atom Journal in the hopes of creating a community where we could share knowledge and ideas on our ever-changing world. Co-founded by Lila and Auxane, this journal hopes to engage the youth in the sciences and to make the world of STEM accessible to a wider audience. Through short articles and analysis of research articles, we hope to bringing more visibility to current research project and young scientists around the world whilst inspiring and engaging young minds worldwide.

Our mantra: Come for the science, stay for the fun!
