Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and members of the Town Board honored Jericho High School Senior Natasha Kulviwat, Vincent Huang of Syosset High School and Jacob Gross of Roslyn High School. These students were recently recognized as Finalists in the prestigious Regeneron Science Talent Competition, which included a $25,000 prize for each of them.
Winners in the competition typically spend weeks in university laboratories and work closely with adult faculty to develop complex and meaningful projects. Natasha, Vincent and Jacob made the Top Ten and were selected from 300 semifinalist scholars and a total applicant pool of nearly 2,200. Finalists are considered to be among America’s brightest students in science and math and represent some the area’s most outstanding schools.
