Following my scoop from 4 days ago… …. tonight there is a major update. It is worth noting that this was a Friday night news dump, in an attempt to bury it. Statement from the Society for Science ''During the 2024 Regeneron ISEF competition, Krish Pai, 17, was announced as one of this year’s $50,000 Young Scientist Award winners. Soon thereafter, the Society for Science received allegations regarding the scientific integrity of Mr. Pai’s research project. Per the Society’s defined process, a thorough investigation was immediately conducted. The Society presented its findings and additional questions to Mr. Pai, who then opted to withdraw his project and decline the awards.
