Each year the top high-school science student in the United States participate in the Westinghouse Science Talent Search. This contest offers a $40,000 college scholarship as its top prize. Last year, with 1,652 students entering, the top prize was won by Adam Ezra Cohen, a 17-year old boy from New York City. Adam won for his invention of an electrochemical paintbrush. This ‘paintbrush’ is an electronic circuit that prints tiny patterns on silicon surfaces- parents so tiny that 50 words would fit within the width of a human hair. If further developed, the invention could be used to make powerful microchips for computers. Impessive as this invention sounds, it is only one among many in total, including a computer curso that users can move with their eyes.
