Jack Andraka is a fifteen year old freshman in high school. He developed a paper sensor that could detect pancreatic, ovarian and lung cancer in five minutes for as little as 3 cents. He conducted his research at John Hopkins University. This research could change the face of cancer and promote early detection. To think that scientists spending millions of dollars to find more about cancer, a 15 year old finds out by doing a science fair project!
“There are millions more of me out there...” -Jack Andraka
Jack's method is 168 times faster, 26000 times cheaper, 400 times more sensitive and has a 90% success rate.

The government and major corporations don't like competition.
