Peppy T. Polymer - Generation Nano Middle School Winner 2018

When an antibiotics-resistant superbug threatens an 8-year old's life, Peppy T. Polymer transforms into a cell-sized chain-wielding hero to bring the super-villain to a super-sticky end.

Generation Nano challenges middle and high school students to imagine novel superheroes who use the power of science and technology to solve crimes or tackle societal challenges.

This competition is presented by the National Science Foundation in partnership with the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI).
