Mammalian Biology
Third Award
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, and disruptions to the circadian system, which is regulated by a set of clock genes, can lead to tumorigenesis. In previous research, a generali…
Cognitive Science
Third Award
Problem Statement The growth of automatic speech recognition in the past decade, including Siri, Alexa, and Cortana, has unveiled a serious problem: the implicit racial bias. Studies have sh…
Physics & Astronomy
Third Award
Gravitational lenses are rare but significant phenomena in astronomy, where a foreground galaxy distorts the light of a distant galaxy. Each lens enables the study of dark matter, the Hubble…
Alternative Energy
Third Award
The purpose of this experiment is to create an active solar panel system that captures more energy than an earlier passive design. This helps society by reducing the need for fossil fuels an…
Applied Mechanics & Structures
Third Award
I aimed to find out the relationship between the cart traveled distance (Dx), the cart weight (Wx), and rubberband extension (ΔL) for a rubberband-driven cart. I hypothesize that the distanc…
Behavioral & Social Sciences
Third Award
Gendered parenting teaches children the reality of gender roles in society but interferes with recognizing their true skills. This project aimed to investigate how early childhood gender-bas…
Mathematical Sciences
Third Award
Robotic control is often divided into four categories: mapping, localization, path planning, and control. Recent innovations related to path planning often center around search-based plannin…
Toxicology
Third Award
This experiment seeks to determine whether or not freshwater acidification impacts the heart rate of Daphnia Magna. Not many studies have looked into the impact of freshwater acidification,…
Physics & Astronomy
Third Award
PURPOSE: Half of all strokes in golf are expected to be putts. If a player can make a more repeatable putting stroke, then they can reduce the total number of putts and achieve a better scor…
Biochemistry/ Molecular Biology
Third Award
Ethanol is a renewable, domestically produced transportation fuel. Overall, the transportation sector accounts for approximately 30% of total U.S. energy needs and 70% of U.S. petroleum cons…
Environmental Engineering
Third Award
My science experiment is about Hermetia Illucens (a.k.a., “Black Soldier Fly”). The larvae (“BSFL”) from this fly can quickly eat food waste items and turn them into much needed protein and…
Mathematical Sciences
Third Award
This project is inspired from a personal experience of a delayed diagnosis and treatment of pneumonia, which partially resulted from an inconsistency in auscultation interpretation. This pro…
Computational Systems & Analysis
Third Award
Although digital calendars are prevalent, they often face limitations such as a rigid adherence to specific dates and inflexibility. Consequently, users may have to limit the variety and num…
Applied Mechanics & Structures
Third Award
Golf is gaining popularity during and post COVID, and golf practice ranges are often packed at peak hours. Making golf practice at home more effective and efficient will be beneficial to ten…
Toxicology
Third Award
Colon cancer is the third leading cause of cancer related deaths with over 940,000 deaths reported worldwide in 2020. The overexpression of certain membrane bound proteins, such as Sodium-de…
Behavioral & Social Sciences
Third Award
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by an obsessive adherence to repetitive motion, language, and behavior. Neuroligin, a trans-synaptic adhesion mo…
Plant Biology
Third Award
The Artemis mission has sparked curiosity about a self-sustaining lunar colony. This experiment’s purpose was to emulate earth soil fertility in a lunar simulant using two essential nutrient…
Materials Science
Third Award
Our research aims to create an eco- and cost-friendly alternative to cow leather and polyurethane leather, the most common synthetic leather. We chose this research as we are passionate abou…
Biochemistry/ Molecular Biology
Third Award
Better therapeutics for prostate cancer are needed because over 34,000 American men are estimated to die of prostate cancer in 2022. Natural products have been a valuable source of anticance…
