“I would like to take the time to congratulate Emily Kim and Kevin Zhu of Jericho High School on becoming finalists in the 2023 Regeneron Science Talent Search. Both Emily and Kevin had the experience of presenting their research for a week in the Nation's Capital and were awarded $25,000 based on their research skills and promise as scientists. Emily and Kevin were chosen to compete out of 1,949 students from 628 high schools across 48 States, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and four other countries. Emily's project studied activated carbon and its potential to treat the wastewater produced by the fast-fashion and textile industries. Kevin Zhu's project studied change in DNA associated with neurological disease and how the changes can serve as a measurable indicator for future cancer blood tests. These extraordinary students, although very young, have set the bar for the many likely to follow in their footsteps. Now, more than ever, scientific research and STEM skills are vital to solving some of the world's most complex problems. Bright minds such as Kevin's and Emily's are on the cutting edge of breakthrough discoveries. Congratulations to you both, and may you have great success in the future and in your career.
