Programs in this channel
3Blue1Brown
My name is Grant Sanderson. Videos here cover a variety of topics in math, or adjacent fields like physics and CS, all with an emphasis on visualizing the core ideas. The goal is to use animation to help elucidate and motivate otherwise tricky topics, and for difficult problems to be made simple with changes in perspective.

Domain of Science
Mapping all human knowledge
Dr Becky
Real science, from a real scientist. I'm an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford making videos explaining the Universe. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me!
My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
I have also written a few books.: "A Brief History of Black Holes" (available in hardback, paperback, e-book, and audio - self-narrated) "Space: 10 Things You Should Know" (available in hardback, paperback, e-book, and audio - self-narrated) "Space at the Speed of Light" is the US title of Space: 10 Things You Should Know
Fermilab
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory is America's particle physics and accelerator lab. Founded as the National Accelerator Laboratory in 1967, it was renamed after physicist Enrico Fermi in 1974. Since its inception, Fermilab has been a world leader in particle physics, with discoveries including the bottom quark, top quark and tau neutrino, three of the elementary particles that make up our universe.
Fermilab is home to approximately 1,700 scientists, engineers, technicians and support staff, and hosts about 2,500 visiting scientists from around the world. The laboratory is managed by the Fermi Forward Discovery Group for the U.S. Department of Energy. More information can be found at www.fnal.gov.

Capturing the natural beauty of chemistry
I find that chemistry is often taught poorly or without a purpose. Because of this, people tend to lose interest and sometimes even start to hate it. In each video that I make, I try to balance theory with purpose. My goal is to capture the natural beauty of chemistry in fun and interesting ways.
In terms of education, I have a BSc in Biochemistry, with a minor in pharmacology. However, I've always been a lot more drawn to applied chemistry. So after finishing my degree, I worked as a lab tech in an organic lab, and then as a chemistry grad student. However, I ended up leaving my graduate studies early to focus on this channel. Now, making chemistry videos has become my full-time job!
SciShow

Howdy, I do deep dive broccumentaries into science scandals and controversies. Currently I animate in Blender, and previously dabbled in Google Earth for a bit. Studied engineering physics and photonics in school. My old videos focused on video game content, shoutout if you've been here since the Spongebob days.
I've got a Patreon and a Twitter! Channel art is my own, but my profile picture was commissioned from @RealHeayn on Twitter!
