獲獎學生課題分享

James Xiao

究竟什麽(me) 樣的初中生科研可以突出重圍？2022博通大師賽入圍名單公布！

課題

腸道細菌代謝組在結直腸癌中的作用

研究背景及內(nei) 容

我最喜歡的演員之一是查德威克·博斯曼。他在2020年死於(yu) 結直腸癌（CRC）後，我決(jue) 定開始了解這種疾病。期間我發現研究表明這種類型的癌症與(yu) 腸道微生物群之間存在聯係。

腸道是人體(ti) 的胃腸係統，而腸道微生物組是生活在那裏的微生物群落。它包括多種類型的細菌，以及其他一些有機體(ti) 。現有的文獻表明：腸道微生物組可以影響健康的各個(ge) 方麵。於(yu) 是我想進一步了解腸道細菌產(chan) 生的化學物質是如何影響CRC細胞生長的。

Sarah Charlotte Simmons

課題

治療馬類炎性呼吸道疾病的便攜式支氣管擴張劑輸送係統研究

研究背景及內(nei) 容

我和我的雙胞胎妹妹艾瑪很喜歡騎馬。有一天，我發現我們(men) 的一匹馬在長途騎行後呼吸困難，之後教練告訴我們(men) 這匹馬患有哮喘。

哮喘是一種身體(ti) 呼吸道的慢性疾病，馬和人都可能患有這種疾病。哮喘發作時，氣道會(hui) 發炎和變窄。我便很擔心如果一匹馬在外出騎馬時出現嚴(yan) 重哮喘，會(hui) 發生什麽(me) 。於(yu) 是我們(men) 對現有的治療馬類哮喘發作的不同方法進行了研究，包括注射和帶口罩的噴霧器等等。

Elizabeth Shen

課題

花瓣開放的黃金比例與(yu) 計算機內(nei) 存的管理

研究背景及內(nei) 容

通常計算機不會(hui) 均勻地將數據輸入內(nei) 存，所以隨著時間的推移，大量使用的電池會(hui) 損壞，必須更換內(nei) 存。如果我們(men) 可以更好地管理內(nei) 存可以平衡內(nei) 存的磨損並減少浪費。

幾年前，我在藝術課上了解到黃金比例。如果兩(liang) 個(ge) 數字有黃金比率，那麽(me) 兩(liang) 個(ge) 數字之和除以較大的數字等於(yu) 較大的數字除以較小的數字。黃金比例在自然界中也有體(ti) 現。例如，有多少朵花從(cong) 上一朵花長出約137.5度的新花瓣。我想知道這個(ge) 概念是否有助於(yu) 平衡計算機內(nei) 存的使用，進行了這個(ge) 研究。

以上是比較有代表性的幾個(ge) 課題！從(cong) 這些課題中，我們(men) 不難發現他們(men) 的研究基本來自於(yu) 學生在生活中的細節，老師也認為(wei) 這就是中學生科研的樂(le) 趣所在：來源於(yu) 生活，高於(yu) 生活。

今年還有許多非常有趣的課題，也不禁讓人期待起最後的決(jue) 賽！

博通大師賽

博通大師賽（Broadcom Master）是由美國科學與(yu) 公眾(zhong) 社團和Broadcom基金會(hui) 聯合創辦、麵向6-8年級美國學生的科學賽事。它還是再生元國際與(yu) 工程大賽 ISEF的初中生版。

和 ISEF一樣，博通也無法直接參加，學生需要從(cong) 地區賽中脫穎而出，才能拿到前往賽場的門票。

去年共有來自15個(ge) 州、28所學校的1841名學生參賽，他們(men) 通過地區賽的層層挑戰，闖進博通決(jue) 賽的舞台。最高榮譽Rising Star Award的獲得者將有機會(hui) 參觀 ISEF。
