STEM Fellowship Journal

STEM Fellowship is a Canadian, youth-led, non-profit organization that creates mentorship and experiential learning programs to equip students with skills in data analytics, research, and scholarly communication. STEM Fellowship Journal (SFJ) is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal published by Canadian Science Publishing. The SFJ is dedicated to showcasing research from first-time high school and undergraduate authors.

We are now calling all young scientists to submit their interdisciplinary STEM research papers, including original research articles, viewpoints, and review articles that detail inconclusive results, to celebrate our belief that failures are the basis of scientific understanding. As such, the theme of this call is Inconclusive Results. SFJ believes that researchers need to communicate their inconclusive findings in order to logically direct future research initiatives. More information can be found here. The deadline is on July 15, 2019.

We are also proud to announce the latest release of our STEM Fellowship Journal (Volume 4, Issue 1). The issue hosts a wide range of original investigations done by young STEM researchers. This issue includes research on the predictors of HPV vaccination completion; how Tigecycline demonstrates anticancer activity; and how milk can be made less allergenic. In addition, this issue showcases the proceedings of the Indicium and unERD (Undergraduate Engineering Research Day) conferences. The PDF of the issue can be found here.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or require any further information.
