The countdown to choosing the nation’s top young scientist has begun, as Discovery Communications announced 400 students from around the country selected as semifinalists in the 2006 Discovery Channel Young Scientist Challenge.
Florida’s semifinalists include Anne Moenning of Punta Gorda, a sixth-grade student at Canterbury School of Florida, and Ashley Krueger of North Port, who attends fifth grade at Cranberry Elementary School. Anne’s project was “How a New Cervical Collar Affects Healthcare Worker Acceptance,” and Ashley’s entry was “How to Remove Fingerprints from Unusual Places.”
