I Wrote an essay to explore the topic: why people still care about their body after death. Finding evidence and theories to support my arguement, I explain this topic in multiple perspectives, such as neuroscience, psychological, and philosophical.

I Received Commendation prize for 2026 competition, which is about the top 10% in all of the participants.

Identified the widespread problem of medical overuse through my own experience I cooperate with classmates to investigate this problem. We navigate knowledge from psychology, calculus, chemistry, and economics. From a psychological perspective, I analyzed how authority bias may lead patients to follow doctors’ recommendations even when treatment seems unnecessary, while doctors may have different incentives when making treatment decisions. I also examined how different economic systems may influence medical overuse and used calculus to build a model of the problem.

We created an interactive web game to explain the risks of medical overuse in a fun and accessible way, helping students in my school better understand healthcare decisions and improve their health awareness.

Navigating Biology, Calculus and Statistics knowledge, I conducted a PBL project with my classmates to investigate how coating materials in cat food may affect cats’ oral health, a less studied topic in the current research field.

We reviewed existing research and found that fats and other chemicals in coatings may contribute to oral diseases such as periodontal disease.

We then conducted online molecular docking simulations using Gibbs free energy as an operational definition of binding effects, and used statistical tests and confidence intervals to analyze the results. We found that animal fats were less likely to cause harmful effects than plant fats, while different coating factors were associated with different health effects.

Based on our findings, I developed an interactive online scale using existing cat health indicators to help cat owners choose suitable cat food and raise awareness of cats’ oral health.

I am conducting psychology research on how online mourning expressions influence adolescents’ death perception and emotional response. I am also analyzing important elements and concepts in existing research through literature review. Through the research, I am developing research methodology with careful ethical consideration.

Identified the problem about social media platform usage and adolescents' appearance anxiety, I Designed online surveys based on existing research, such as Appearance Anxiety Scale (AAS) and Objectified
Body Consciousness Scale (OBCS-BS), to investigate the level of adolescents’ appearance anxiety in my community.

In the process, I strictly followed the ethical guidelines. I keep questions like specific age and gender optional, and debrief about the data usage.

I constructed a t-test and a confidence interval to analyze psychological data patterns among participants based on 155 valid responses, and found that although there are no significant difference between genders, people who do not answer questions about their personal information tend to have significantly higher anxiety level.

I Participated in China Think Big and worked with my team to investigate the water pollution problem in our school lake and explore possible solutions.

My main responsibilities were designing posters and delivering the opening part of our presentation. I designed the posters to clearly present our research process and make our findings easy to understand.

In the presentation, I introduced the problem by quickly drawing the audience’s attention to the condition of our school lake, its potential impact, and the importance of solving the problem for our community.

Through this project, I learned how to turn complex research into clear and engaging communication and encourage people to pay attention to issues in their own community.
