Teen Wins $50,000 For Topnotch Suicide Prevention Project

A teenager Natasha Kulviwat won $50,000 at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair for her project where she studied brains of those who committed suicide. The 16-year-old spent around 6 months in a laboratory at Columbia University where she studied the brain tissues to investigate if there was something measurable in the brain to explain the phenomenon.
