Maria Louise Fufezan and Diana Bura have proudly
claimed the BT Young Scientist 2016 overall award. The two freshly crowned
Young scientists worked very hard since the beginning of the school year on
their project.
The winning Project that crowned them
Young Scientists of the year is called "An Investigation into the Effects of
Enzymes used in Animal Feed Additives on the Lifespan of Caenorhabditis
Elegans." The group was entered into the intermediate section of the
Biological & Ecological Sciences category.
The pair received a reward
of €5000, The BT Young Scientist Trophy and the opportunity to take part
in the BT Young Scientist of Europe in Brussels. They made various appearances
on RTE as well as our filmed assembly.
Keep up the fantastic work girls, we are all very proud!
