Bronze medals went to Dylan Buys, Keenan Bowes and Adin Rikisahadew for research on the effect of gaming on reaction time; the effect of dog drool on bacterial growth and an investigation into solar powered cars, respectively.
Other Grosvenor Science Club participants were Joshua Horsley, who investigated the growth of plants with different music; Leanor Panderes, who looked at the differing salt quantities on the boiling point of water; Ethan Byron, who researched the effect of freezing on various rocks and Steveland Carrol, who showed how the musculoskeletal system brings about movement in the hand.
