2025 Science Talent Search Project Showcase: Yash Ranjith, 18, of San Jose, created a neural network to speed up the prediction of how pollution spreads for his Regeneron Science Talent Search environmental science project.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Thanush Patlolla, 17, of Cary, solved a major problem plaguing quantum computing for his Regeneron Science Talent Search physics project.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Project Showcase: Logan Lee, 18, of Honolulu, studied how to better control mosquito populations for his Regeneron Science Talent Search animal sciences project.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Rania Lateef, 17, of Manassas, studied circadian dysfunction and sleep disruption in fruit flies for her Regeneron Science Talent Search animal sciences project.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Hrithik Ketineni, 17, of Portland, created a quantum search algorithm for his Regeneron Science Talent Search computer science project.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Melody Heeju Hong, 17, of Wantagh, developed a powerful, flexible statistical model. It focuses on identifying sites in the human genome that are important to understanding gene expression.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Lena Zewdu Feleke, 17, of Antioch, searched for a better way to deliver gene therapy into kidney cells. Her research focused on different plasmid constructs containing the SLC3A1 gene, a genetic cause of kidney stones.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Ava Grace Cummings, 18, of Smithfield, created a model organism of STAC3 disorder. This rare genetic condition was formerly called Native American myopathy.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Ishana Chadha, 17, of Commack, explored the genes that control how cells move when the brain grows. Cells move around as the brain develops, and problems with this process can lead to disorders like epilepsy.

2025 Science Talent Search Finalist Jolene Cao, 17 designed a perovskite quantum dot (PQD) nanomaterial that can change its nanoscale arrangements on demand. PQDs are tiny crystals that glow when exposed to energy. These are used in future 3D displays and computer chips.

2025 Science Talent Search Project Showcase: Prisha Prakash Bhat, 17, of Richardson, TX, analyzed how increasing gene activity affected drought and arsenic resistance in rice.
