Three Manhasset High School students will be making the trip to Los Angeles this May to participate in the prestigious International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF).
Senior Dylan Yoon and junior Alena Tsai are Long Island Science and Engineering Fair (LISEF) Finalists and will be representing Long Island at the fair. Dylan’s project “The Enhancement of a Novel 3D-Printed Electrodialysis Device through the Implementation and Optimization of Spacer Designs,” and Alena’s project “Integrated In-silico and In-vitro Experimental Strategies for the Application of Carbon Quantum Dots in Alzheimer’s Research,” were both top finishers in the local competition.
Additionally, junior Emily Zhao is a New York State Science and Engineering Fair (NYSSEF) ISEF finalist and will be representing New York State at ISEF. Her project “Novel Eutrophication Remediation Turbine For Piezocatalytic Inactivation Of Anabaena In Optimized Turbulent Flow” was a top finisher in the state competition.
All three students will have the opportunity to compete in the annual national science fair, which is owned and administered by the Society for Science, a 501 non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C.
