Four students to compete in the Regeneron International Science Fair

The Science Research and Engineering Program held its 25th annual Poster Session where approximately 100 SREP Fellows showcased their research ranging from independent background literature reviews to four-year-long research projects. SREP students have worked with over 400 researchers since 1998 and over 600 students have participated in the program. 

SREP Fellows won a number of special awards in recognition of their graduate-level research. The top four projects from the Poster Session were selected as finalists to attend the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in May. The Regeneron ISEF finalists are:

• Gauri Gandhi '24: Developing a Preliminary Ultrasonic Continuous Glucose Monitoring (GCM) Implant System (Kilgore Lab)

• Ishita Kopparapu '24: 3D Human Stem Cell Model for Neurodevelopment (Miranda Lab)

• Neha Sangani '24: Real-time Microfluidic Evaluation of Hemostatic Properties of Procoagulant Synthetic Platelets (Sen Gupta Lab)

• Julia Zhu '24: MFN2, A Potential Therapeutic Target for Alzheimer’s Disease (Wang Lab)

ISEF is the largest pre-college science event in the nation and more than 1800 student finalists from local and regional fairs from roughly 75 countries and territories arrive to compete for scholarships, tuition grants, internships, and scientific field trips.
