  • Boris Zinshteyn, C'09, was a science fair champ in high school, but his many awards didn't prepare him for the remarkable accomplishment he would achieve after just one year at Penn. During his sophomore year, Zinshteyn, a student in the Vagelos Scholars Program in the Molecular Life Sciences, co-authored a paper published in Science, one of the world's most prestigious scientific journals.

    "It's very nice to know that your research is important," says Zinshteyn with modesty that belies the significance of the paper's findings on the subject of RNA editing.
