About BrainsForYouth

We make a magazine
for the thing
reading this.

BrainsForYouth is a reader-supported magazine of adolescent neuroscience. We exist because the people most affected by the science of the teenage brain are the last to be talked to about it.

Our working theory

Young people deserve the actual science, not a softened-up version of it. So we give them the actual science — with better sentences.

01

Plain English

If a sentence requires a footnote to understand, the sentence is wrong. We rewrite the sentence.

02

Free for all ages

Every mini lesson, every Ask a Neuro, every worksheet — free, forever, no account required.

The editor.


Ana Amaglobeli

Founder & editor

Ana Amaglobeli founded BrainsForYouth to make adolescent neuroscience readable for the people it's actually about. She writes and edits the magazine — the articles, the mini lessons, the mailbag answers — and reads every letter that comes in.
