The Mission

I am Aarushi, a 12th grader, and I love exploring the intersection of physics and engineering to address climate change. My research involves finding ways to apply concepts like optics to make more energy efficient technology.

I am Smriti, a 12th grader, and I am passionate about the intersection of artificial intelligence and healthcare. I have been involved in research at the MD Anderson Cancer Center, Illinois Institute of Technology, and Indian Institute of Technology, and I'm also heavily involved in the Illinois Junior Academy of Science science fairs and the International BioGENEius Challenge. I aspire to continue creating and deploying novel deep learning frameworks and solutions to critical medical issues.

I am Meghana, a 12th grade student who is extremely passionate about biology and its application to computer science. I am most involved in research exploring these topics at Northwestern University. I aim to utilize computer science to find treatments for various diseases.

I am Lillian, a 12th grader, and I love applying my love for mathematics and machine learning to community issues such as food deserts and adolescent mental health. I have been involved in applied math research with the Actuarial Research Clearing House as well as Northern Illinois University. I hope to become a mathematics professor in the future and continue to be involved in research.

I am Ria, a 12th grade student, and I am interested in investigating genetics in artificial intelligence, for which I am currently pursuing research at Northwestern University. I aim to ultimately become a neurosurgeon and spark change in the lives of my patients.

 I am Sanjay, a 12th grade student who is extremely passionate about computer science, bioinformatics, and artificial intelligence. I am most involved in research exploring these topics at Loyola. I hope to use technology as a tool to transform lives
