Marti – “Science is the key to unlock the gates to a new era and to a brighter future”

If you were to imagine the Olympics for Science with the brightest and the best students, aspiring scientists and creative minds from around the world along with a competition full of intriguing ideas and design discoveries, this week would without a doubt be it.

287 innovative science projects are being presented and on display with students from around the world at The 38th annual Beijing youth Science Creative Competition in China.

I had the honor of being a judge for a part of the competition and I was truly impressed by these student designed projects that aim to correct indoor air pollution, detect heart attacks or concepts that use  nanoparticles to help in fighting diseases like cancer and more , the ideas are endless.

A promising young scientist, a middle school student from Macao summed it up perfectly at the end of his presentation this afternoon about the need for importance of scientific innovation and discovery.
