Want to win a contest without answering a single question?

Yes, you can do that. You need to pose a simple and interesting question about molecules.

FIRST Teams Sought to Participate in Nobel-Prize-Winners Contest

The Molecular Frontiers Inquiry Prize: Deadline: May 6

http://www.molecularfrontiers.org/pages/programs/molecularfrontiersprize.php

One of the great things about the size and quality of FIRST is that it is draws attention from many other groups. One of these groups, who attended this year's Championship and was particularly impressed, was the sponsor of The Molecular Frontiers Inquiry Prize.

Take their online challenge – which is to pose a simple and interesting question about molecules – and see if you can win one of 10 iPods. Among the Judges who pick the winners are selected Nobel Prize winners.

The contest is for students under the age of 17. Compete by submitting a creative question about molecules and explaining why your question is important. Ten student winners will receive an iPod, a medal, and an invitation to attend a symposium at which the Nobel Prize winners will be in attendance.
