PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Labs will produce a series of high school student journalist virtual interviews with researchers working to understand and fight the COVID19 pandemic. These interviews will highlight the role of student journalism in improving the health STEM literacy of teenagers and the public; connecting students to biomedical and clinical research career pathways and spotlighting the role of health research in education, policy decisions, and civic life. Videos will be edited by Student Reporting Labs youth media producers and published on social media and digital public media platforms to broad audiences of teenagers and adults.
