It would be great however, if they could profile a kid whose parents grew up poor in the United States and has zero connections. All these young science winners seem to have one thing in common- connections. His was that he attended a networking event at the Melanoma Research Alliance. How many high schoolers get to go to networking meetings?
My husband who is a scientist said there are papers previously published using imiquimod for basal-cell carcinoma.
According to the article, he was looking to use soap for a delivery vehicle rather than a cream in order to lower the cost. It's kind of missing the point of pharma patents and drug costs but at least he's thinking about the problem.

You can't do science without connections. If a poor student was to start from nothing and become successful in science, networking would be a large part of their success. Then, people reading the article would consider them privileged for having the connections.Anonymous wrote:Seems amazing and it is well deserved.
