UMD’s Maryland Science Olympiad student volunteers created a space for aspiring young scientists to test their STEM skills.

Tiwary and Herron’s invention “RNAnneal: Prediction of RNA Tertiary Structure and Thermodynamics With Generative AI” is a breakthrough in computational biology that could reshape how we design drugs targeting RNA—a fast-emerging frontier in medicine.

Thanks to the scholarship’s support, Jamil Yacoubou Adam found his community at UMD.
