ScienCentral, Inc. was co-founded in 1996 by scientist and CEO/President Eliene Augenbraun to increase the number of quality science stories being broadcast to the public. We launched an independent news bureau—Science & Technology News Network (STN2)—to report on the medical, environmental, and technological issues affecting daily life.

By 1999 commercial local news affiliates were broadcasting our science features across the country. ScienCentral’s production unit was partnering with organizations such as the Lucent Technologies Foundation to create engaging, informative multimedia projects. That same year we co-produced “Transistorized!”—an award-winning documentary on the invention of the transistor.

Today, our science and technology features can be seen each week on ABC’s local news stations. We also help corporations and non-profit organizations communicate science and technology through videos, educational products, Websites and CD-ROMs.
