At Regeneron ISEF 2024, finalists had the chance to ask questions of STEM and business leaders who once stood in their shoes. Here are some of the insights they shared.

During Education Outreach Day at Regeneron ISEF 2024, approximately 3,271 students from 56 schools throughout the Los Angeles region visited the Los Angeles Convention Center to get up close and personal with the exciting STEM research conducted by students all over the world. Education Outreach Day was a unique opportunity for these students to not only learn about the vast opportunities for STEM regionally, but also to learn how they could participate in science fairs in the future.

Middle school students across the nation were invited to apply for the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge (JIC) after placing among the top 10% of participants at their Society-affiliated science fairs. Congratulations nominees for the 2024 competition!

May 2024: The top winners were honored during two award ceremonies: the Special Awards on May 16 and the Grand Awards Ceremony on the morning of May 17. In total, over $9 million USD was awarded to the finalists based on their projects’ creativity, innovation and depth of scientific inquiry. The competition featured nearly 2,000 young scientists representing 49 U.S. states and nearly 70 countries, regions and territories across the world.
