14-year-old Invents Soap for Treating Skin Cancer and Wins Top Honor as America’s Top Young Scientist
Heman Bekele, a 9th grader at W.T. Woodson High School in Annandale, VA, was awarded the $25,000 grand prize as the winner of the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge, with a melanoma treatment in the form of a bar of soap.
@nursefrombirth Uhhh... for something like that, I think $25k is a shitty prize. Add an extra 0 to that payout there bubbas!

@GrumpyWolf I agree. It's estimated that we spend 8.1 billion annually on treatment for skin cancer. I'd say another 0 or a few more 0's would be appropriate. 🤔
