Sara Volz
This 17-year-old scientist
created her own unique work space for her research: her bedroom. More
specifically, she created her own algae biofuel lab under her bed. Her
at-home project led to groundbreaking advancements
for the scientific community -- including proof that the natural oils
produced by algae could be converted into biofuels used in diesel
engines. Sara's discoveries beat out 1,700 other whiz kids nationwide to
win the 2013 Intel Science Talent Search. She was awarded a $100,000
scholarship.
