Science Sandbox is an initiative dedicated to inspiring a deeper interest in science, especially among those who don’t think of themselves as science enthusiasts. We support and collaborate with programs that unlock scientific thinking. Our projects and partnerships reinforce a powerful notion: You don’t have to be a scientist to think like a scientist.
