WELCOMEWelcome to the 39th Annual

Gwinnett Regional Science, Engineering + Innovation Fair!

We welcome each of our participants, guests, supporters and volunteers to the annual 2017 Gwinnett Regional Science, Engineering + Innovation Fair. Without your support and participation, this event would not be possible. We are grateful

for your time, expertise, and willingness to share this day with us.

Congratulations to the students who have demonstrated excellence in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Through their hard work and

dedication, they have earned an opportunity to participate at this regional competition. They are to be commended for their hard work, innovation and

commitment to the study of science.

This year, we celebrate the theme of, “Ask WHY.” It is our hope that today’s participants recognize the power in unlocking possibilities when

asking the right questions. “Why did you select your science fair project?” “Why did you become an engineer?” “Why is the Gwinnett Science,

Engineering + Innovation Fair important to our community?”

It was once said, any organization can explain what it does; some can explain how they do it; but very few can clearly articulate why. Our goal of the event is to open students minds to a new line of thinking, allow them to discover new

passions and ultimately, encourage them to innovate ways to change the world. Thank you for being with us today and have a wonderful time at this year’s

Gwinnett Regional Science, Engineering + Innovation Fair.

Bonnie BrushDirector of Mathematics, K-12

Gwinnett County Public SchoolsRole of the Advisory Committee

• Advise and assist with securing presenters of dynamic programs for the fair connecting real world science and engineering applications to excite and encourage

students to further explore the areas of science and engineering. • Promote and enhance the overall quality of the event evaluating post

event and making recommendations for the next year.• Identify industry connections for career expo exhibitors, project judges and event

sponsorships to offset expenses and to provide scholarships and awards.

ADDITIONAL THANKSThis event would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of many individuals. This special thanks does not sufficiently recognize the magnitude

of each of their efforts and while space does not allow for each to be mentioned by name; many are valued for their hard work and contribution.

Center’s mission is to transform the concepts of science and history into interactive, learnby- doing experiences that will encourage a

visitor’s natural curiosity and sense of wonder about themselves and the world around them.


POWER UPElementary students will learn first-hand how Jackson EMC linemen help the community by keeping the power on and restoring service

after a storm. A hands-on demonstration educates the public, shares safety information and creates an overall awareness of the power industry. Jackson EMC employees often participate in career fairs,

show-and tell days and safety demonstrations within the communities we serve. Contact your district Jackson EMC office if you’re interested in having a demonstration or send a request to [email protected].

This interactive presentation will give the students a visual of diseases within the colon along with colon facts. It will focus on how

to maintain a healthy colon and prevention of colon cancer.


Jeffery Adams Office of Clinical Education,

Director of Simulation, Georgia Campus – Philadelphia

College of Osteopathic Medicine

MEDICAL SIMULATION: HELPING STUDENTS ACHIEVE CLINICAL COMPETENCE

Four state-of-the-art human patient simulators provide GA-PCOM medical students the opportunity to practice techniques and diagnosis in a supportive environment prior to treating real patients. The simulators breathe and have heartbeats, pupils that react to light and medications,

pulses that can be felt at eight locations, and lung sounds. They can also talk and accurately mimic human physiology responses to procedures such as CPR, intubation, ventilation and catheterization. Highlights of how these

simulators are used to teach clinical skills will be demonstrated.

With nine years of experience in the field of simulation, Jeffery Adams was recently named Director of Simulation for Georgia Campus – Philadelphia

College of Osteopathic Medicine (GA-PCOM). In this position, he will oversee the activities of the campus’ newly expanded Simulation Center which gives students the opportunity to practice clinical skills, develop

communication abilities and demonstrate clinical competence. Through the use of standardized patients or patient actors and patient simulators, the Center provides the opportunity to practice techniques and diagnosis in a

supportive environment prior to treating real patients.

Denis WrightTechnical Leader, Cisco Systems

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STAR TREK!It’s 50 years since the first episode aired on NBC, in which a crew of astronauts aboard the Starship Enterprise explored a fictional

United Federation of Planets in the 23rd century.

Leaving aside for a minute the fun and games of exploring space: the final frontier, let’s look at the Starship itself. When our beloved program was first aired, the Enterprise represented a brave new world of connected devices. There were in-ship communication screens, a holodeck where alternate realities could be simulated with astonishing clarity, and teleports to instantly transport crew members from one place to another. Star Trek – inspiring the

Internet of Things?

Denis is currently a technical leader in the Services organization within Cisco Systems supporting large Service Provider companies.

He has been working for Cisco for 15 years and primarily works with the mobility sector.






Jay V Bassett, Chief Sustainable Materials Management,

U.S. EPA Region 4

HOW AMERICA IS LOSING UP TO 40 PERCENT OF ITS FOOD FROM FARM TO FORK TO LANDFILL

Food is simply too good to waste. Even the most sustainable farmed food does us no good if the food is never eaten. Getting food to our

tables eats up 10% of the total U.S. energy budget, uses 50%of U.S. land, and swallows 80% of freshwater consumed in the United States.

Yet, 40% of food in the U.S. today goes uneaten. This session will give an overview of this national issue and how government, industry

and non-governmental organizations have come together and are working collectively to meet a national goal of a 50% Reduction in

Wasted Food by 2030. You will have an opportunity to contribute to this national discussion and leave with thoughts and ideas on how

students (and your future) can be part of the solution and make a difference.

Jay manages USEPA Region 4’s RCRA Subtitle C State, Solid Waste and Sustainable Materials Management programs for the eight

southeastern state Region consisting of Georgia, Florida, Alabama., South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Kentucky.

He is responsible for developing and implementing the Region’s Sustainable Materials Management program through promoting efforts

to manage materials and products on a life-cycle basis, building capacity and integrating materials management approaches in existing

government policies and programs, and accelerating the broad, ongoing public dialogue on sustainable materials management.

2+2 = AN AWESOME CAREERHear from professionals from the metro Atlanta area that will
