A long term Metroplex Math Circle participant, Amy Chyao, is eligible for a people’s choice award for her submission to the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.
Amy developed a novel photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT), an emerging cancer treatment which uses light energy to activate a drug that kills cancer cells. Amy’s results indicate that the photosensitizer successfully overcame several current obstacles faced in PDT, and shows significant potential for future application in cancer treatment.
