Mia Soviero, born November 20, 2001, is an American neuroscientist, entrepreneur, influencer, and advocate for science education. She is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Research Girl, Inc.,.[1] a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting students pursuing scientific research through mentorship and educational resources. Soviero is also an emerging scientific author[2] [3] and active science communicator with a significant following on social media platforms [4].

Soviero earned a Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience and Behavior from Barnard College of Columbia University, [5] on a pre-medical track. While a student, she worked as a research assistant at NYU Langone Health's Department of Neuroscience [6] and Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute [7]. While initially interested in headache, and publishing several scientific articles about telemedicine for headache and chronic pain[8] [9], Soviero went on to conduct research about the relationship between memory and affective disorders, including depression. Her thesis in Neuroscience and Behavior explored the relationship between memory and affect in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. She was awarded the Christina L. Williams Prize for Original Research for her work [10]

Soviero founded Research Girl, Inc. after her experience as a low income student who was the first in her family to pursue science. The nonprofit provides resources to make scientific research more accessible to the demographics which have historically been underrepresented in the field. According to Soviero, Research Girl's mission is to "center, support, and empower underrepresented students by offering comprehensive information on how to conduct research from start to finish."
