These three young scientists are each winners of their age groups (13-14, 15-16 and 17-18 respectively), with Shree winning the grand prize of a $50,000 scholarship and a trip to the Galapagos and an internship at CERN! Wow.

Of course Naomi and Lauren also picked up some great prizes and they all got the opportunity to present at TEDx Women:
