In 2011, Angela Zhang, then just a high school student, stunned the scientific community by creating a breakthrough nanoparticle system capable of targeting and destroying cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. Her project combined nanotechnology and medicine to engineer a delivery system that could carry drugs directly to cancerous tumors, increasing treatment precision and reducing side effects.
Her groundbreaking research earned her the top prize in the Siemens Competition in Math, Science & Technology, along with a $100,000 scholarship. Angela’s early contributions to cancer treatment continue to inspire a generation of young scientists pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the fight against cancer.
