Congratulations to the winners of the 2007 Middle School Bioscience Challenge!

The projects were exceptional, the presentations interesting and the judging difficult. Students had the opportunity to listen to the other student presentations before breaking into groups to engage in hands on workshops. Omaha North instructor LeeAnn Vaughan and her students took participants through the fascinating process of extracting DNA from various fruit while Dr. Don Lee from UNL led the groups through a plant based experiment.

Final results are as follows:

1st Place Mission Middle School (Bellevue)
Got Juice?
2nd Place

King Science & Technology (Omaha)
Does Genetically Engineering Color Alter Fish Behavior?

3rd Place Logan Fontenelle (Bellevue)

5th Place Irving Middle School (Lincoln)
