The annual Lambton County Science Fair took place April 4–5 at Lambton College, drawing nearly 80 student participants and more than 100 volunteer judges. A total of 52 projects were showcased over the weekend by budding scientists from across the region.
Top honours went to Cyndi Rayson, a Grade 9 student at St. Patrick’s Catholic High School, who earned the Best of Fair award for her project The Cost of Color: An Innovative Analysis of Azo Dye Reduction and Combination Effect.
Rayson will go on to represent Lambton County at the Canada-Wide Science Fair in Fredericton this June, alongside two other local students: Mustafa Arif, a Grade 9 student at Northern Collegiate, for his project Novel Multimodal AI Architectures for Motor Intent Decoding in Assistive BCIs, and Ben Harper, a Grade 8 student at St. Philip Catholic School, for his climate-focused project A Wavy Problem – Navigating the Surges of Climate Change.
Organizers of the Lambton County Science Fair extended their thanks to all participants, volunteers, and sponsors for making the weekend a success.
