We are happy to announce that Dalton senior Elana Simon was selected to take part in the White House Science Fair, hosted by President Obama, as an honored guest. Elana's cancer research, initiated while she was part of the Dalton Science Research Program, directed by Lisa Brizzolara, and her team's important findings at Rockefeller University, have made national news. Elana will join many other science competition winners from around the country at the Fair, now in its fourth year and to be held on Tuesday, May 27, 2014.
Its focus this year is on girls and women excelling in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). The White House announced the fair via its blog on Tuesday, May 19.
