| I am a student in the 12th grade at Moira Secondary School in Belleville, Ontario. I am president of my school's student council and I have lead many fundraising initiatives throughout my school over the past few years. I have organized Christmas Sharing auctions, Have a Heart campaigns to raise money for HIV/AIDS awareness and research as well participated in the planning of many Random Acts of Kindness Week activities. At the 2008 CWSF I was awarded a silver medal in senior life sciences. At my 2009 regional fair I was awarded the Sci-Tech Ontario Stepping Stone Award, the Ontario Association of Medical Laboratory Sciences Award, the University of Ontario Institute of Technology Innovation Award as well as a scholarship to the University of Ottawa. This year I competed at the 2009 Sanofi-Aventis Biotalent Contest where I placed fourth. In the fall of 2009 I will be studying either Biology or Biomedical Sciences at the University of Ottawa. I hope to pursue biomedical research in the future and would like to further explore the field of the development of chemotherapeutic agents for cancer treatment. |

Tryptophan had minimal effects on any of the cell lines. Tetrahydrobiopterin reduced cytotoxicity of Cisplatin when acting on A2780s cells and inhibited the cytotoxicity of cisplatin when acting on MCF-7 and W183 cells. |
