September is almost here, which means it’s time for EUCYS, the European Contest for Young Scientists! Last year it was hosted in Dublin, Ireland, where I actually met my good friend, Dana Venkert. Dana is a scientific researcher and project manager with 5 years of experience in academic research in the fields of Neuroscience, Neurobiology and Medicine. Her EUCYS project was on the effect of hyperbaric oxygen exposure on the DDR mechanism in astrocytes in relation to Alzheimer’s disease, which she conducted at Tel Aviv University. She is a spokeswoman at international conferences, and she has recently attended the Asian Science Camp in China as Israel’s deleagte, we’ve expanded on that unique scientfific experience as well. In her words science is “beauty and people”. Don’t miss to take a “few moments of science” with us!
This week’s STEM shouout goes to EUCYS, it will take place in Sofia, Bulgaria, where Intel ISEF also sends students. The 2019 winners are Leo Takemaru and Poojan Pandya, from the state of NY, and Kaylie Hausknecht also from NY. Congratulations to them!
