Introducing... STEMBox: a Monthly Science Box for Girls

Kina McAllister started working as a research tech for Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, after graduating from Seattle University with a B.S. in General Science with a focus in Biology and Chemistry.

Her interest in science started at young age when she’d use her allowance to buy Gross Science! kits (instead of the more girly beauty science kits), trying to prove that she could do things just as well as boys. Now, she wants to give girls a real taste for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), by giving them their own equivalent of Gross Science! kits.

Aimed at girls aged 7-14, STEMBox is a subscription box that feature a different scientific concept each month. Each box features an experiment, and contains sophisticated labware (those used in real labs), the required reagents, a protocol, fun science accessories, and a link to a corresponding video.

Scientista chatted to Kina to find out more.
