Since its inception, TikTok has become an arbiter of culture, memes, and even political organizing, all while curating eerily specific For Your Pages for its users full of dancing videos, funny filters, and viral songs. But one of its most promising uses is connecting more people to fun, educational accounts, spanning the range of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
STEM creators have gathered tons of engagement on their informational videos in various fields of science, math, and even public health, as physicians took to the platformto dispel misconceptions about the COVID-19 pandemic. Educational accounts like these combine the easily digestible format of the short-form video app with hard science, making often over-the-head STEM topics easily digestible for millions of viewers.

Scroll on for a short list of STEM accounts sharing content across a wide range of expertise, and give a few of them a follow to add some fun, educational videos to your FYP.
Geo Rutherford is a printmaker, fiber and book artist, and resident teacher of lake science for more than one million TikTok users. Rutherford's account is a neat combination of beautiful, environment-inspired art and science posts about hydrology, geology, and underwater exploration. She's known for her "spooky lake month" series, in which she spends all of October sharing eerie or unusual facts about bodies of water around the world, like the parts of the Amazon River that boilor the shipwrecks at the bottom of the Black Sea. Go to her page for more cool hydrology videos, explanations of strange Great Lakes geology, and explainers on ancient lakesthat have long dried out.

Cristoforetti's TikTok page's creation coincided with her journey back into space, which began on April 27, 2022. She posted her first TikTok from the International Space Stationon May 5, and has since landed safely back on Earth. Her TikTok account includes videos on how astronauts use the bathroom, what kind of food you can bringon space stations, and how her fellow space explorers build up their muscles while in zero gravity.

A former space communications specialistfor NASA and the U.S. Space Force, Doten started her account during the COVID-19 pandemic as a fun way to improve science literacy and cultivate interest in the space industry. She posts videos on breaking space news, debunks space misinformation, and makes sure to fill your FYP with mind-blowingspace facts.
Annelise Baer, TikTok's "friendly neighborhood archaeologist," is an archaeologist and producer with Project Nivica Archaeology, a research initiative on the prehistoric cultures of Nivica in southern Albania. Baer has a master's degree in Archaeology for Screen Media, which she has used to produce educational archaeological content for various history and archaeology-themed series. On her TikTok page, Baer dives into archaeological history, highlights new discoveries, and dispels common misconceptionsabout history and pseudoscience,as well as how archaeology is conducted— it's an inside look into the field.
Darrion Nguyen is probably one of the most recognizable STEM accounts on TikTok because of his frequently viral (pun not intended) comedy videos about biochemistry, medical research, and other human sciences. A recent graduate of the University of Texas, Nguyen's posts often riff on current trends and memes, adding genuine science lessons to the app's current crazes. Videos include funny takes on the immune system, protein synthesis, and other concepts from your college biology courses you may have forgotten (or never even learned). His page is probably a relatable stop for any pre-med students or lab technicians, bonding over the struggles of doing hard research and combating misinformation.
Andre Isaacs is an Associate Professor of Chemistry at the College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts, known for his colorfully energetic lab videos featuring his students. Isaacs' videos give humorous glimpses into studying chemistry and scientists at large, collaborating with other STEM creators like Nguyen. He was even featured as one of TikTok's 2023 LGBTQ+ Visionary Voices. Scroll his page to see fun moments with his students, videos on how to foster the next generation of scientists, and even conversations on how chemistry and LGBTQ identity are more similarthan you might think.

Follow his account for chemistry videos accessible for all ages.
Kyne Santos is a drag queen and longtime YouTube creatorwith an impressive brain for all things math. Since 2020, the TikTok star has utilized their bachelor's degree in mathematics to make short-form videos, sharing straightforward explanations of math and physics concepts to 1.3 million followers. Santos' videos aren't just about the formulas or concepts you learned in your math courses, though. Instead, the videos relate core math principles to our everyday life, like how the Farenheit temperature scale works, how to optimize making change by adding new coins to U.S. currency, and how game theory relates to the modern workplace. They even share videos about social justice topics like LGBTQ mathematics icons, AAPI history, and the importance of drag. Follow Santos' account for a daily dose of math that's helpful, interesting, and might break your brain — but in a fun way!
With more than 10 million followers, the Institute of Human Anatomyis TikTok's go-to spot for quick lessons on human anatomy and physiology. Off the internet, the Institute is a Utah-based private human cadaver lab (received through body donor programs) that provides anatomical education for health professionals. The TikTok account is run by the organization staff, including marketing director and instructor Justin Cottle. In addition to the TikTok account, you can find science explainers by institute co-founder Jonathan Bennion on the Institute's Instagram page, or head to its YouTube channel. A gentle warning here that this account doesn't shy away from showing real body parts, genitalia, organs, you name it.
Yes, the Encyclopedia Britannicadoes have a TikTok account and it's sharing all things science with more than 200,000 followers — it's basically the modern version of the famed general knowledge book first published in 1768. The page is great for all ages, posting fun songsand trends turned into quick science lessons, as well as deep dives into facets of biology, physics, and just about anything else you can think of.
