At the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, being held this weekend in San Diego, scientists will hear about the latest research by presenters from Harvard, Stanford, Duke — and D.H. Conley High School.
Three students and one graduate of the Pitt County High School are among delegates representing the American Junior Academy of Science, a national honor society that recognizes high school students for their scientific research. The students, seniors Alex Haddock and Mark Poczontek, sophomore Aakash Gandhi and East Carolina University freshman Missy Buckingham will present scientific research at the event, which is America’s largest general scientific meeting.
“This is a great opportunity for our students to go to this national meeting,” said Susan Purser, who is accompanying the students along with fellow Conley science teacher Coleman Bailey. “It’s really good for building their science skills.”
