Fox Lane students compete at science symposium

Earlier this month, three Fox Lane High School Science Research students competed at the Upstate Junior Science and Humanities Symposium competition in Rome, N.Y. The symposium, which is supported by the Department of Defense, challenges students to showcase the findings of their original STEM research in an oral presentation or research poster.

Junior Eliana Chiariello and seniors Zach Cohen and Gabriel Wierzchowski represented Fox Lane with projects. The students studied the origins of painted lady butterflies, primordial black holes, and the financial burden of treatment and how it differs between patients with asthma and COPD respectively.
