Lewis Kim proudly strutted to the podium in a culmination of his research throughout his four years of high school at the European Union Contest for Young Scientists (EUCYS). With his project, “The Future of Carbon Capture Technology: A Novel Moisture Powered Thin-Film Supercapacitor that Absorbs Carbon Dioxide,” Kim won the Swiss Talent Forum award — given to two outstanding participants — along with an invitation to an academic conference in Switzerland.
