Banner Graphic
Adam enjoys performing in musical drama and making movies with his camcorder. He also enjoys playing tennis and soccer. In the future, Adam would like to use his interest in science and technology to create computer programs or devices to help disabled people.
Project Graphic
Adam read about the potential dangers of pesticides—including connections to various illnesses. He wondered if there were safer alternatives. Last year, he discovered that an extract from unripe mistletoe berries kills mosquito pupae. This year he wanted to compare the extract to commercial pesticides.
 
He mixed berry extract solutions of varying concentrations, and did the same with commercial pesticides. He placed 20 mosquito larvae in each solution and observed them for three days. He found that 3% malathion killed less than 50% of the larvae, while 3% mistletoe extract killed 95%.
