A full 40 of the nation's best and brightest high school seniors have been chosen as finalists for Intel's 2013 Science Talent Search.
Offered by the Society for Science & the Public, the Intel-sponsored program chooses finalists based on several factors, including their own scientific research and their achievements and leadership, both inside and outside of school.
The competition asks students to come up with scientific solutions to answer questions and resolve problems that affect the entire world.
"This year's Intel Science Talent Search finalists are presenting a wide range of research, from optimizing algae oil for biofuel to developing a new treatment for blood cancer," Wendy Hawkins, executive director of the Intel Foundation, said in a statement. "It's exciting for the future of innovation because the U.S. needs these 40 high school seniors, and others like them, to question, explore and help solve some of the world's greatest challenges."
