    In 2015, Dr. Sacha Noukhovitch and the late Mohammad Asadi Lari co-founded STEM Fellowship, a country-wide student network that empowers youth with skills in data science and scholarly communication. Through various programs, including the STEM Fellowship Journal, National Big Data Challenges and STEMpowerment, the pair has inspired innovative thinking and learning through inquiry among this generation of data natives, and helped remove socio-economic and geographic barriers to youth participation in scientific disciplines.
