April

As part of our ongoing look at science research courses and students in the region, today we feature a video of Niki Tsamis, a Dobbs Ferry High School student who spent years studying RHOBTB, a gene that is a known tumor suppressor in breast cancer. She began the research to determine if the gene could be used to prevent cancer. Read our earlier story about science research courses here. Scroll down for videos of other students.
