SCI-TECH ONTARIO

Mr. Robert Bailey: It was my pleasure to have two students from my riding of Sarnia-Lambton here last week as part of the Sci-Tech Ontario presentation. Christopher Chopcian from Hanna Memorial elementary school and Llew Falla from Northern Collegiate Institute and Vocational School were both here to demonstrate their award-winning submissions.

Christopher's project was entitled Control Innovations for Quadriplegics, and it was a mobile human-machine interface that is designed to enable people with spinal injuries to control different appliances just with a nod of their head. For this invention, Christopher won two gold medals, something that is very rare at the national science fair.

Llew's project was called CH4 Optimization of Biowaste via Microbial Fuel Cell Control. This was a green energy project in which he designed a microbial fuel cell that shows it is possible to simultaneously generate methane gas and electricity. This would show great promise in creating both a carbon-neutral and a renewable energy system. He will be attending an international science fair with his project.

I would like to congratulate both Christopher and Llew. Their parents, friends and teachers should be very proud of them.
