Kim won first place in the Senior Division with his Biomedical and Health Sciences category project, while Chen placed second with her Animal Science category project.<\/p>\n<p>During the spring, Kim also participated in the Tennessee Junior Academy of Science competition in Nashville, where he was selected as one of two winners and a Tennessee delegate for the 2025 meeting of the American Junior Academy of Science. He will present his research at the February 2025 meeting.<\/p>\n<p>Davis said that UTC has hosted the annual CRSEF event for decades \u201cbecause we want to promote scientific inquiry and collaboration\u201d among middle school and high school students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need them to see that they have a place in the STEM field and that their research is valuable to us,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s not just something to be done for a grade or a science fair project, but rather it\u2019s something that helps them reach out beyond their school walls and meet with other students from all over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCRSEF covers 18 counties between Tennessee and Georgia, and it\u2019s fantastic for our students to see that their STEM projects and research matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Assistant Professor of Education Stephanie Philipp, who also serves as interim director of the UTC STEM Education Program, and her husband\u2014Assistant Professor of Chemistry Craig Philipp\u2014accompanied the students to California as chaperones.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe one thing about the ISEF dates is that the students have to juggle (advanced placement) exams, final exams and graduation sometimes, but they were really good travelers,\u201d Stephanie Philipp said. \u201cJoshua was only a sophomore, so he didn\u2019t have to worry about graduation\u2014but I think he took three AP exams the next week. And I know that Rachel, who was a senior, had to come back and get ready for her senior trip \u2026 then exams and graduation and everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite those challenges, Philipp implored local area students to participate at the regional level at CRSEF next March, which will give them the opportunity to advance to ISEF.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are big scholarships involved,\u201d she said, \u201cand a lot of these students will go on to maybe patent some of this work.
