Australians can discover answers to these questions and more with TikTok’s new, dedicated STEM feed rolling out throughout January.

Over 500 Aussie STEM creators will feature on TikTok’s STEM feed, including author of 48 books Dr Karl Kruszelnicki (@drkarl), astrophysicist Dr Kirsten Banks (@astrokirsten), and microscopic interrogator Walt Carroll (@oneminmicro). They’ll appear alongside more than 7,000 STEM creators from around the world, including renowned international institutions such as the American Museum of Natural History (@naturalhistorymuseum), National Geographic (@natgeo), and New Scientist magazine (@newscientist).

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics content has grown by 35% on TikTok since the STEM feed launched in other markets, including the US, Canada, the UK, and most countries across Europe. 1 in 3 young people on TikTok visit the STEM feed on a weekly basis in regions where it is available.

We speak with Dr Kirsten Banks at the launch, held at the SeaLife Aquarium in Sydney on 15 January.
