About the Intel ISEF The Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF), a program of Society for Science & the Public, is the world’s largest international pre-college science competition. The Intel ISEF is the premier science competition in the world and provides a forum for more than1,500 high school students from 65 countries, regions, and territories to showcase their independent research annually. Each year, millions of students worldwide compete in local science fairs; winners go on to participate in Intel ISEF-affiliated regional, state and national fairs to earn the opportunity to attend the Intel ISEF. Uniting these top young scientific minds, the Intel ISEF provides the opportunity to Finalists to display their talent on an international stage, while enabling them to submit their work for judging by doctoral-level scientists. The Intel ISEF provides awards over $4 million in prizes and scholarships annually.

In the 6.2 nd year of the science and engineering fair, we congratulate each Finalist for earning the opportunity to participate. Every Finalist has earned this privilege through hard work, perseverance, and ingenuity. As we acknowledge the accomplishments of students, we trust students will acknowledge the critical support of the parents, teachers, and mentors who have been their research partners and enablers. As we gather in Los Angeles this week, I look forward to meeting many students and learning about their research. By virtue of scientific curiosity and achievement, Intel ISEF Finalists have the potential to help solve many of the world’s most vexing problems and, therefore, contribute to the realization of our best global community. No matter what the future holds, I urge every Finalist to continue to communicate the importance of scientific research to family, friends, and the broader community, and to stay involved with the Intel ISEF and Society for Science & the Public (SSP). We acknowledge the Intel Foundation and the Intel Corporation gratefully for their continued partnership with SSP, which has made the Intel ISEF possible. Intel’s global leadership and commitment to science, engineering, and math education is an inspiring example of corporate investment in the future. SSP also acknowledges with gratitude the more than 70 other organizations that have provided support and awards for the Intel ISEF 2011. SSP salutes the hard-working Intel ISEF volunteers in Los Angeles and around the country. These individuals share an unwavering dedication to scientific research and education and have generously given their time and energy to ensure a successful event. Congratulations.
