Northwestern University Knight Lab

Northwestern University Knight Lab is a community of designers, developers, students, and educators working on experiments designed to push journalism into new spaces. The Lab provides an open, collaborative environment for interdisciplinary exploration and conversation, where students and professionals learn together and from one another. In short, we’re energized by hard questions worth answering; we believe in the process as much as the product. You may know us from our award-winning storytelling tools such as TimelineJS and StoryMapJS, or from our support of Census Reporter, a website designed to make Census data easier, or from our amazing alumni who have gone out to do great things in media, technology, and design.
