1THE EXPRESSION OF CALCITONIN RECEPTOR (CTR) BY BRAIN TUMOUR INITIATING CELLS OF GLIOBLASTOMA MULTIFORME: AN EVALUATION OF FUNCTION WITHIN THE BRAIN TUMOUR

Abstract

This project focuses on developing the infrastructure for a self-sustaining organization that can manage, grow, and evangelize olympiads that involve young students (middle and junior high) in computational thinking. A large component is the creation of pilot olympiads in a select few cities in the United States. Specific goals of this project include: (1) identifying a set of foundational skills that underlie computational thinking that can be taught before college and high school; (2) identifying a style of problems and scenarios that engage a wide variety of students; and (3) implementing a curriculum of training sessions and contest questions that exemplify those foundational skills.
