HHS Research Students Place at JSHS Science Symposium

Congratulations to the ten Harrison High School Research Science students who participated at the Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS). Senior Ari Heilbrunn received 2nd place in the category of Medicine and Health and senior Anna Cahn received 3rd place in the category of Biochemistry.

JSHS is designed to challenge and engage students (Grades 9-12) in science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM). Individual students compete for scholarships and recognition by presenting the results of their original research efforts before a panel of judges and an audience of their peers.

Nearly 600 students from area schools competed in oral presentation and poster presenter categories. There were many topics of research which included Behavior, Bioinformatics, Biology, Cellular & Molecular Biology, Chemistry, Engineering, Medicine & Health, Neurology, and Physical Science.
