Calling all Juniors! Enter the Regeneron Talent Search!

Calling all Juniors! Enter the Regeneron Talent Search!

Research Coordinator, Mr. Jason Econome shares that summer is just around the corner and there is an exciting opportunity for juniors to earn money while creating something extraordinary: enter the Regeneron- Science Talent Search competition! Students need to perform a research project and submit a paper describing it by November 13, 2020. Students who enter the Regeneron Research Senior class (period 10) in the fall earn course credit and enhance transcripts with a very special accomplishment that all colleges and graduate programs greatly value. Additionally, those succeeding through the contest's first round will receive $2,000!

Please visit the contest website (https://www.societyforscience.org/regeneron-sts/), register now and start thinking about a research project to work on this summer. The possibilities to impact the community are endless (i.e. new computer software applications, social studies surveys, identifying new variables linked to a disease through city or hospital data banks). Any student having difficulties getting started may e-mail Mr. Econome for help to create

a project idea and find a mentor to consult for guidance. Please use @schools or @stuy.edu emails when contacting staff members, not personal email addresses. jeconome@stuy.edu or jeconome@schools.nyc.gov
