000 250,000 Goes to the Top Award Matu Paz I America’s longest -time walking and the most prominent science and mathematics competition
Trey Town, New York and WashingtonFor, for, for,. March 11, 2025 / Prnewswire/ – Regional Pharmaceuticals, Inc. And Society for Science (Society) announced that Matu Paz18, of Pasadina, CaliforniaFor, for, for,. Won the top award of 000 250,000 In 2025 Regional Science Talent SearchAmerica’s oldest and most favorable science and mathematics competition for high school elders.
Now in its 84Third Year, competition celebrates and reveals the young innovators who are using their science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) capabilities and leadership skills to advance the boundaries of discovery and solve today’s important challenges.
Forty finalists, including Meto, were awarded this evening during the award ceremony at the National Building Museum. Washington, DCWhere they were awarded more and more 8 1.8 million In rewards for their ground research, the extraordinary skills of solving the problem and the future of STEM’s future formal potential capability.
- Matu Paz18, of Pasadina, CaliforniaFor, for, for,. Earned the first position and 000 250,000 To design the machine learning algorithm to effectively comb through 200 billion entries of the raw noise infrared full sky data. By analyzing small changes in infrared radiation, AI set up items in 10 classes. It received 1.5 million new potential items.
- Another place and 5 175,000 Went Ava Grace Comes18, of Smith Field, North CarolinaFor, for, for,. To create a fruit bee model of a stack 3 disorder, or local American myopathy (a rare genetic muscle disease). He found that in combination with herbs, alone or with experimental drug thermoto, the movements have improved in both adult flies and larvae.
- Third place and 000 150,000 Went Owen Jianwin Zhang18, of Belive, WashingtonWhich solved a long -standing math problem about 3 uniform hypergraphs. It proved the maximum price of how many 3 uniform hypergraphs can have similar structures but different contacts. Owen results have applications in computer science.
“Greetings to the winners of this year’s Region Science Talent Search,” Maya AjmaraPresident and CEO, Society for Science and Executive Publisher, Science News. “The remarkable creativity and dedication of these students creates a new hope of our future. They are easily driven, these young scientists are developing important solutions that are capable of changing our world and advancing society.”
Regionon Science Talent Search provides a national platform for exhibition of original, modern stem research for high school seniors that suggest a novel solution for real -world affairs. The finalists are evaluated for their scientific hardship, originality, critical thinking, leadership ability and a meaningful impact in the important STEM sectors.
“The search for science talent changed my life. In my high school, STS winners were treated like star athletes, and I never thought I would belong to the amazing group of children I had never seen before,” George de YancoplosCo -Founder, Co -Chair of the Board, Chief Scientific Officer of the President and Regal, and the Science Talent Search Finalist and Top Winner in 1976. “The experience of competing in the STS and the name of a top winner gave me the confidence to do my life for science. Therefore, congratulations to this year’s finalists and winners, you are the best and brightest of the United States.
The other honors of the competition include:
- Fourth location: Logan Li18, of Honolloo, Hawaii Received A 000 100,000 Award for sterile male mosquitoes in the wild. These men are important under mosquito control. Logan improved his survival by providing a wild mosquito bacterial transplant. Its transplant helped sterile mosquitoes grow fast and survive in the forest.
- Fifth location: Rivaka lipocotz18, of San Francisco, California Received A 000 90,000 US voter ID laws for the use of statistical modeling to study. He found that the presidential election turnout in the states decreased 2.4 %, which passed stringent rules since 2008. Turnout increased in midterm elections. Knowing how the rules affect turnout can help create future policies.
- Sixth location: Melody Hiju Hong17, of Vantag, New York Received A 000 80,000 Inside the human genome, a powerful, flexible statistical model for maping of sites called trans -methyllation quantitative trait (Trans MQTL). These sites are the key to understanding the mutual interference between genes and the environment in the age of illness and aging.
- Seventh place: Kevin sheen18, of Olympia, Washington Received A 000 70,000 Customs Flight Computer Award to Control 3D Printed Aircraft with Taruch Wings These aircraft may be more effective with fuel, but they are difficult to overcome. Its ferocious wing aircraft and flight computer improved flight performance by 9.2 %.
- Eighth Place: Mango zoo18, of Santa Clara, California Received A 000 60,000 Protone imitation award to investigate the environment that produces a subtomatic particle called neutrinos. It created an algorithm that imitated the most astronomical conditions, such as electromagnetic and gravity forces and interaction with nearby particles. He confirmed it using known cases of particle motion.
- Ninth place: Thanosh Patola17, of Kerry, North Carolina Received A 000 50,000 The award for closer the density of electrons using a limited nuclear model. Using a mathematical strategy called density function, he created a model to map the electrons in nuclear simulation. The map increased the accuracy of energy distribution predictions by 0.6 %.
- Tenth location: Ray Zhang17, of CHANTLY, Virginia Received A 000 40,000 How to better treat drug -abiding fungal infections for the study. Ray studied how fungus builds cells’ sticky communities that resist drug treatment. They also found that fungus was better controlled using drug combinations.
- Sinkan alone17, of Albuker, New Mexico The 2025’s Regioneron Science Talent Search Class was nominated by the Sebourg Award and was selected to speak by the 2025 Regioneron Science Talent Search Class. The 40 finalist selected Achlean as a student who bestows his class and nuclear chemist Glenn Tyberg’s inheritance, which won the Nobel Prize on the Society’s Board in 1951.
All other finalists received 000 25,000. All 40 finalists have joined a prominent group of talent search for former students, many of whom have moved forward to seek a global -changing career in STEM, including the Nobel Prize, the National Medal of Science, and MacArthur Fellowship. Overall, the Regner was given award 1 3.1 million In rewards, including $ 2,000 To every top scholar and his school.
