This past summer, Manhasset High School senior Catherine Chen represented the United States at the International Stockholm Junior Water Prize in Stockholm, Sweden.
Following her success, the president of the Water Environment Federation invited Chen to present her research at the upcoming WEFTEC Conference in Chicago.
These hydrogels were synthesized in the Manhasset Science Research lab and evaluated for effectiveness, stability, and surface properties.
Chen also visited NYU labs to conduct more advanced analysis of her synthesized hydrogels.
Chen represented the United States at the International Stockholm Junior Water Prize competition in Sweden, presenting her project before an international jury alongside students from 38 countries.
