The Scientista Foundation and Perricone MD have committed to giving away four $20,000 fellowships to dedicated young women in STEM: one from each of the following levels: undergraduate, masters, doctoral student, and young professional. The fellowships will be awarded via a video speech competition.

All eligible women are invited to submit a three minute video answering the question: How do you embody a Born Seeker? Your answer should share your unique story of how you currently embody or hope to embody the values of curiosity, drive and perseverance.  For information about submission criteria, please visit the fellowship site, www.bornseekersfellowship.com.

The women selected as our 2018 Born Seekers will build skills in communication and leadership, serving as role models for the next generation of scientists, engineers, doctors, and STEM professionals. Our four finalists will be invited to present at the annual Scientista Symposium, where they will give a ten minute talk sharing their unique Born Seeker story. ​
