  • About I’m a Scientist

    I’m a Scientist is like school science lessons meet the X Factor! School students choose which scientist gets a prize of $1000 to communicate their work.

    Scientists and students talk on this website. They both break down barriers, have fun and learn. But only the students get to vote.

    This zone is Lithium Zone, supported by Department for Manufacturing, Innovation, Trade, Resources and Energy (DMITRE) (SA). DMITRE agree that learning about science is awesome and provides necessary adaptable skills for the future.

    This zone has a range of scientists studying all different topics. Who gets the prize? YOU decide!
