Research on bioelectronics, microbe genetics and mathematics earned three teens top awards — and big prize money — today at the 2024 Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). These young researchers each took home at least $50,000.
Almost 2,000 high-school finalists from around the world traveled to the City of Angels this week to compete. Hundreds of these teens shared more than $9 million in awards at the prestigious event.
“Even at your age, you’re already finding solutions to some of the biggest challenges we face,” said Maya Ajmera, speaking at the grand awards ceremony today. “Among all of you, I see future innovators, leaders and trailblazers. And no matter what happens today, know that by being here, you are already winners.” Ajmera is president of the Society for Science
