Student Wins Prize for Toxic Agent Sensor
From Times Wire Reports
A 17-year-old boy won a national science competition for creating a sensor that detects exposure to toxic agents.
David Bauer, a senior at Hunter College High School in New York, earned a $100,000 college scholarship in the 2005 Intel Science Talent Search. He developed a way to rapidly detect exposure to biochemical agents, with hopes that his discovery could be a lifesaver.
