To further inspire Indigenous learners to pursue a career in STEM, DeadlyScience will bring along 20 First Nations students to participate in an interactive Q&A session with two teams from the F1® grid.

“At DeadlyScience we know that 'you can't be what you can't see', and that is why It is vital that we support and inspire Australia's First scientists to pursue careers in STEM fields, to enable them to integrate over 65,000 years of Indigenous scientific wisdom, culture, and knowledge into contemporary innovation frameworks.”
This opportunity will allow us to bring Indigenous science knowledge to the forefront and highlight the work we are doing in creating STEM equity for Indigenous learners across Australia.”
