Joy Wang was a finalist in the 2013 Intel Science Talent Search – the nation’s oldest and most prestigious pre-college science competition – as a senior at Parkland High School in Allentown, Pa. She has shared the powerful story of her moment of inspiration at the Da Vinci Science Center. “Eight years ago, I stepped into an oddly-shaped glass building for summer camp, very reluctant, thinking science was just some geeky subject that didn’t make any sense. I walked out of that building in love with that geeky subject and determined to make sense of it and to one day become a scientist.”
