Biographie
My name is Viane and I'm a grade 12 student at Old Scona School in Edmonton. I've traveled a lot growing up. I was born in San Diego, CA, went to France as a baby and lived there for a few years, came to Halifax, NS, and finally ended up in the City of Champions. I am very passionate about school, in fact so passionate that it seems to be one of the few things I do other than science! I have a cat who I like to think is my little angel. When I do have free time (which isn't very often halfway through senior year), I like to watch hockey. I love participating in science fairs because nothing is better than going to an event where everyone can just talk science and teach all the interesting things they know!

Division:Internationale
Catégorie:Sénior
Région:Edmonton
Ville:Edmonton, AB
École:Old Scona School
Sommaire:The purpose of my project was to determine if the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids doxosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid enhanced the effects of the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin on MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. I measured cellular growth by performing viable cell counts using a trypan blue stain and the WST-1 assay, which measures cellular metabolic activity.
