2006 Presidential Scholar and the 2006 All-USA High School Academic Award
Detroit Country Day School student, John Zhou from Northville, Michigan, was awarded the 2006 Presidential Scholar and the 2006 All-USA High School Academic Award.
Biosystems engineering associate professor, Evangeline Alocilja, mentored John during the summer of 2005. John worked under Dr. Alocilja in her lab researching biosensors. He was a part of the High School Honors Science Program (HSHSP), a national summer research program held at Michigan State University designed for high-achieving high school students. Students work in ongoing research projects with a faculty mentor. It provides high school students experience, which cannot be duplicated in high school or the first years of college.
John was also a semi-finalist and finalist in the 2006 Intel Science Talent Search and 2006 Siemens Westinghouse Competition; and winner of the 2006 Sanofi-Aventis International BioGENEius Challenge.
