History

The Society for Science began the competition in 1942 with Westinghouse Electric Corporation; for many years, the competition was known as the Westinghouse Science Talent Search. In 1998, Intel became the sponsor after it outbid several other companies.{{cite web | url=http://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/1998/04/01/29sci.h17.html?print=1 | title=Intel Corp. To Sponsor Annual Science Contest | publisher=Education Weekly | date=1 April 1998}} In May 2016, it was announced that Regeneron Pharmaceuticals would be the new title sponsor.{{cite news|last1=Pierson|first1=Ransdell|title=Biotech Regeneron replaces Intel as sponsor of Science Talent Search|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-regeneron-pharms-intel-science-idUSKCN0YH09G|website=www.reuters.com|date=26 May 2016|agency=Reuters|access-date=26 May 2016}} Over the years, some 147,000 students have entered the competition. Over 22,000 have been named semifinalists and 2,920 have traveled to Washington, D.C., as contest finalists. Collectively, they have received millions of dollars in scholarships and gone on, in later years, to capture Nobel Prizes, Fields Medals, MacArthur Fellowships and numerous other accolades.{{cite web|title=Society Alumni Honors|url=https://student.societyforscience.org/society-alumni-honors|publisher=Society for Science and the Public|access-date=13 February 2023}}

Thirteen alumni of the Science Talent Search went on to receive Nobel Prizes, two earned the Fields Medal, eleven have been awarded the National Medal of Science, twenty received MacArthur Fellowships; three have won the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research; seven have won a Breakthrough Prize; and many have been elected to the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering.

Competition

Entrants to the competition conduct original research—sometimes at home and sometimes by working with leading research teams at universities, hospitals and private laboratories.{{cite web| url=https://www.societyforscience.org/press-release/300-teen-scientists-selected-as-regeneron-sts-2023-scholars/|title=America’s Top 300 Teen Scientists Selected for Achievements in STEM Innovation and Leadership in Nation’s Oldest and Most Prestigious High School Competition| publisher= Society for Science | date= 13 September 2023}} The selection process is highly competitive, and besides the research paper, letters of recommendation, essays, test scores, extracurricular activities, and high school transcripts may be factored in the selection of finalists and winners.
