Arjun Subramaniam, grade 11, was selected to study at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at SUNY Stony Brook as part of the Simons Summer Research Program. From June 27 through Aug. 9, Subramaniam will work full time with assistant professor Thomas MacCarthy, performing research in the department of applied mathematics and statistics.

Each year, Harker nominates three students for the program. They are selected based on their academic standing, the strength of their application and teacher recommendations. Each year many of the country’s best science students apply for this unique research program, but only about 12 percent are selected to participate. Congratulations to Arjun for this stellar opportunity!
