They are our biggest advantage, and they are at the Davidson Institute because they want gifted young people to reach their full potential.

Oliver was featured in the Falls Church News-Press for his project: https://bit.ly/3XoAhFi
Congratulations to 2024 Davidson Fellow Oliver Wang! Oliver will receive a $25,000 scholarship for his engineering portfolio. "My research, when applied to lithium-ion batteries, could improve battery performance, increase electric vehicle range, and decrease maintenance costs. Then, electric vehicles may become more cost-efficient and widely adopted. My research also allows medical researchers to incorporate my device into nanoparticles development, potentially increasing the delivery rate of nanoparticles to tumor sites."

The start of the school year can be uncertain and stressful for all parties—children, teens, adults; students, parents, and educators. So, as you begin to make your back-to-school transition, it can be helpful if you practice being thoughtful and deliberate both in the ways you’re supporting your learner and the ways you’re supporting yourself during this busy time.

Congratulations to 2024 Davidson Fellow Aadita Roy! Aadita will receive a $10,000 scholarship for her engineering portfolio. "My organoid model can be used to study the key pathways causing 'pyroptotic death' of pancreatic β-cells and identify targets for pharmacological intervention. Pyroptosis is already being considered a preventative and therapeutic target for other diseases like stroke, which people with diabetes are at higher risk of developing."

The Third Annual Pioneer Co-Curricular Summit presents an unparalleled opportunity for students and educators to unlock their full academic potential. This annual summit is a social benefit initiative by Pioneer Academics. Noting the lack of a free forum for students to connect with educational experts and programs, Pioneer leverages its reputation to bring together the most respected programs and colleges, offering free access to those who will benefit. Under the theme “Imaginative, Interdisciplinary, and Impactful: Reshaping Education for the Next Generation,” this year’s Summit will feature influential voices in education exploring the latest trends and offering invaluable guidance for students navigating the complexities of college admissions. Additionally, Megan Cannella, Director of Outreach at the Davidson Institute, will contribute her expertise on a panel! Learn more and register: https://lnkd.in/gf2xF5-M

Congratulations to 2024 Davidson Fellow Valencia Zhang! Valencia will receive a $10,000 scholarship for her science portfolio. "In this project, we discovered a tidally tilted pulsator that is actually the first-ever triaxial pulsator: it pulsates about three different, perpendicular axes. This finding motivates the redefining of my field of stellar pulsations and sheds light on the types of axes that stars can pulsate about."
