Past Year Project Highlights
We hosted our first in-person Horizons Quest Conference at Boston University in October 2025, where students got a chance to present their research to judges in a 3+2 format presentation. Congratulations to all the participants and the winners!
Read the Tales of Scientists written by our 2024 enthusiasts. Thanks to Dr. Maya Murdeshwar and her team for providing this wonderful mentorship to the high schoolers. In a structured two month period, students were engaged in learning the process of doing scientific literature search, scientific writing and then faced a stringent peer-review process in order to publish the stories about the lives of their favorite scientists.
