Under the "Cellular and Molecular Biology” category, Nguyen Thu Minh Chau (17), Hoang Lu Duc Chinh (16) from the Thang Long High School for the Gifted, Da Lat with their work on “Study on the Ability of Binding and Killing Several Cancer Cell Lines of Antinuclear Antibody” won the third prize.
This year's competition attracted the participation of 1,776 students from 77 countries and territories across the world with a total of 1,374 projects.
Millions of students worldwide compete each year in local and school-sponsored science fairs.
Intel ISEF unites these top young scientific minds, showcasing their talents on an international stage, where doctoral level scientists review and judge their work.
Vietnamese students have been participating in the Intel ISEF since 2012 and have won prizes at every contest since then.
