2023 ‘DISTINGUISHED TRAILBLAZERS IN THE SCIENCES’ ANNOUNCED
Congratulations to Larson Middle School 8th grader, Nathan Ponnudurai who earned recognition from the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, Michigan State University (MSU) and the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) as one of the winners of the 2023 “Distinguished Trailblazers in the Sciences” competition during a virtual ceremony on Jan. 22, 2024.
The outreach activity was open to middle and high school students nationwide. Participants highlight scientists and engineers from minority and underrepresented ethnic/racial groups who have excelled in or contributed to the fields of nuclear science, accelerator science and accelerator engineering.
The program seeks to foster creativity and encourages students to share what they have learned by creating an original artistic design expression, personalized poem, musical performance (song/rap), video, or poster to highlight their selected Distinguished Trailblazer in the Sciences. Nathan's award-winning video highlighted Margaret Melhase! Congrats to Nathan and Mr. Egan who support Nathan's project!
