Cupertino high school student Angela Zhang may know the cure for cancer: As a freshman, she started reading doctoral-level papers on biological engineering. By her sophomore year in high school, she managed to convince Stanford University to let her use their laboratories, and by junior year, she began doing her own research that led her to develop a recipe that boggles even her chemistry teacher.
Zhang’s recipe won her a $100,000 award at a national science competition sponsored by Siemens.
Her method of curing cancer by aiming an infrared light at mutated cells killed cancer in mice; it will be a few more years before it can be determined if the method works in humans. Nevertheless, Zhang’s three years of research is considered a breakthrough. [CBS News]
Imagine the work she’ll do when she’s finished her education.
Jesus christ, can you imagine the possibilities?
Can you imagine how sour the researchers must be that they didn’t think about it?
If her cure works she’d definitely win a Nobel Peace Prize. The youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. MOVIES WILL BE MADE.
Holy crap. o_o
…marry me.
Prime example of why true education is what one finds out by themselves…Angela Zhang, you are officially queen of the Universe.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxsu4exPTy1qz5ew6o1_500.png)
