A 17-year-old boy from the northeastern state of Massachusetts has won the top prize in the Intel Science Talent Search. The competition is the oldest program in the United States that honors the science projects of high school students. The Intel Science Talent Search is 63 years old this year. The winners receive a new computer and money for a college education. A record says 1,652 students from 46 states entered projects for the competition this year. Their research involved nearly every area of science, including chem.-istry, medicine, physics, mathematics, engineering, computer science and social science. 40 students were invited to Washington, D.C. for the final judging. A group of well-known scientists judged them on their research abilities, critical thinking skills and creativity. The judges also questioned the students about scientific problems before deciding on the winners.
The top winner is Herbert Mason Hedberg. He received 100,000 dollars for his college education. He developed a faster, more effective method to tell if a person has cancer. He explored a way to separate telomerase, an enzyme(酶) found in most cancer cells. His findings have helped advance research into ways of stopping cancer cells from growing. Herbert said he started the project after watching his grandmother struggle against cancer. The second place winner is 17-year-old Boris Alexeev. He received a 75,000-dollar scholarship. His research in computer science could be used in the study of genetics(遗传学). The third place winner is 17-year-old Ryna Karnik.
