girls rule!

This story is amazing.

A 17 year old girl created a nano-particle that kills cancer cells.

Ummmmm whaaaaat??

What were you doing
when you were 17?

I was preoccupied with what I was wearing,
what I didn't want to study for and
which boy I was interested in at that moment....

NOT
creating something that scientists for decades have been trying to create.
Yeah...
This 17 year old girl did just that
and she blows my socks off.
And the sweetest thing about it is that she began her research
because her grandfather and great-grandfather both died of cancer.
She just wondered
"why do we die of cancer?"
and just started to... umm...
I don't even have any idea what she started to do...

This girl and her brain are bonkers.

I honestly cannot express how amazing I think this girl is.
I am truly impressed and inspired.

Girls rule.
