High School: Effects of Nicotine on Brain

During the summer of 2026, we had a team of 9 students building an online tobacco prevention model. The project intends to display the impact of nicotine on the brain, while explaining the molecular and systemic biology in a digestible format. The project is being reviewed by a faculty member from Stanford's REACH program. The project can be accessed here: https://www.nicotinezoomed.info
