10 Iowa Science Academy students were nominated and selected in recognition of their exemplary, innovative work in their chosen field. Students recognized through this campaign are showcased on a banner in downtown Iowa City. 

Each year, 20 students from all three regent universities (the University of Iowa, Iowa State University, and the University of Northern Iowa) bring research posters to display at Iowa's Statehouse. Students use their posters as a backdrop to discuss their work with Iowa's legislators. This event also allows students to practice discussing their work with officials, outlining the community/global impact, educational benefits, and importance of their research. Check out the ISA students who presented their research at the Capitol.
