Frontiers Article Alert

Wednesday, 30 April 2014

Read the Frontiers 2013 Progress Report.

 
Frontiers for Young Minds, the science education initiative where kids review articles by leading scientists, officially launched at the USA Science and Engineering Festival in Washington D.C. last week.

A web-based science journal edited by kids, for kids, Frontiers for Young Minds has the double benefit of bringing young people into the world of scientific research and offering scientists a platform for reaching out to the broadest of all publics.

Frontiers is pleased to announce a number of exciting new articles in the field of Psychology.
