 Partners for the Future (PFF)
Each year, the Laboratory selects several outstanding high school seniors to work on original research projects in a laboratory under the supervision of a scientist-mentor. The students are expected to spend a minimum of ten hours per week at the Lab, beginning in October, and to present scientific summaries to an audience of scientists, teachers, parents, and Laboratory administrators at the conclusion of the program in March. They gain valuable research experience and are paid a small stipend for their efforts.
The participants for the 1998-1999 school year were Francis Browne of Cold Spring Harbor, Cold Spring Harbor High School (mentor: Michael Hengartner); Mariza Daras of Manhasset Hills, Herricks High School (mentor: Michael Weinreich); Peter Hallock of Holtsville, Sachem High School North (mentor: Jean-Philippe Vielle Calzada); Rachael Neumann of Woodbury, Syosset High School (mentor: Grigori Enikolopov); Allison Scheff of Islip, Islip High School (mentor: Robert Filipkowski); Diane St. Fleur of Brentwood, Brentwood High School (mentor: Guy Birkenmeier).
