Prisha from East Catholic High School

In a remarkable display of leadership and passion for science, Ms. Prisha Thomas a high school student from East Catholic (Manchester, CT) has taken on the role of an educator, guiding middle schoolers through the intricacies of working in a DNA Molecular Lab. This inspiring initiative not only demonstrates the student's advanced understanding of molecular science but also serves as an example of cross-generational knowledge sharing. The high school mentor imparts valuable skills to the middle school students (pictured above), fostering an early interest in the fascinating world of DNA research and laboratory techniques. This hands-on learning experience not only enriches the younger students' scientific knowledge but also instills a sense of curiosity and excitement for the possibilities within the field of molecular biology.

Prisha has a deep affection for animals and aspires to pursue a career as a veterinary doctor upon completing high school.
