Real research.
Started in high school.

School Research Collective helps high schoolers design original research projects, find mentors, and compete at ISEF, JSHS, and Regeneron. Built by students who've done it. Free to join.

The problem

Most students who want to do independent research — not just join a science club — are on their own. Finding a question, learning experimental methodology, navigating paperwork, getting lab access, figuring out the competition pipeline: most give up before they start.

What we do

We run projects that tackle this gap one at a time. Our first, Project SEED, runs a workshop series on experimental design, matches students with mentors, publishes a competition guide, and hosts peer review circles. Everything is free.

Who runs it

A team of student ambassadors, led by students who've already competed at regional fairs and want to make the pathway less confusing for everyone behind them.
