Project Squad invites teen girls to create a science fair project, in keeping with the requirements of both SciFest and STRIPE Young Scientist.
The sessions begin with brainstorming and then cover research methodology, project management, experimentation/data collection and results reporting.
2025 Sessions begin the week starting September 16th.
A finale, on the 13th week, culminates in poster presentations as part of SciFest. Transport will be provided for all participants. This year’s SciFest will be Saturday December 13th, 2025 at Avantor HQ in Dublin.
