Google is looking for the brightest, best young scientists from around the world to submit interesting, creative projects that are relevant to the world today.

To help make today’s young scientists the rock stars of tomorrow, in partnership with CERN, The LEGO Group, National Geographic and Scientific American, Google is introducing the first global online science competition: the Google Science Fair. It’s open to students around the world who are between the ages of 13-18. All you need is access to a computer, the Internet and a web browser.

Find out more on the Google Blog here, or check out the Google Science Fair website. You have until 4th April to enter. Even if you don’t enter, there are some useful resources in the teachers area for teaching investigations.
