On Friday, the January 2017 I’m a Scientist, Get me out of here event came to a close, with Cheryl, George, and Steven winning in the Health, Blue, and Green Zones.
We asked the winners for some words following their win.
Cheryl Andisi — Health Zone Winner
“This last two weeks have been proof that learning never stops! I would like to thank you so much for reminding me that and also challenging me to read more broadly than I normally would.”
George Githinji — Blue Zone Winner
“I am thankful for the opportunity to respond to a range of questions from curious young scientists from around the country! It was a fantastic refresher course on common and not so common knowledge. Some of the questions required a great deal of thought even though they sounded simple. I am sorry I could not answer all of them within the given time span.”
Steven Adala — Green Zone Winner
“I am humbled to have participated in this year’s event and to have had an opportunity to interact with students from some of the schools in Kenya. It has been a fun learning experience and I appreciate you all, from the organizers of this event, my colleagues at work and the students from the participating schools that showed great enthusiasm and were always eager to have their questions answered promptly.”
