John and Hank Green have decided to pass on one of their more popular YouTube channels on to a new owner. The duo (better known as the Vlogbrothers to YouTube audiences and the pair's 8+ million subscribers across their dozen or so channels) has sold The Brain Scoop channel for an undisclosed amount to The Field Museum in Chicago. The Brain Scoop started in January 2013 by the Green brothers and producer/host Emily Graslie. In June 2013, Graslie moved the production of The Brain Scoop to The Field Museum and become the establishment’s Chief Curiosity Correspondent. For over a year, the Field Museum licensed and operated the science-based channel, which now boasts over 250,000 subscribers, more than 100 episodes, and over nine million views. “As soon as I met Emily I knew she had a really fascinating future in front of her,” said Hank Green, CEO of the Vlogbrothers production company, in the release.
