<p>Speaking as an ex-Siemens regional finalist, congrats to everyone who got recognized!</p>
<p>Hey crimsonuser, did you get anything?</p>
<p>And also, what are in the gift packages for semifinalists?</p>
<p>Whoo! Semifinalist! I’m definitely very happy :D</p>
<p>semifinalist- I’m shocked
Congratulation to all others</p>
<p>Congratulations to everyone!
Today was a good day.</p>
<p>btw, do we get a certificate for Siemens if u get semifinalist? Is it sent to school or to ur house? When is it?</p>
<p>YE!!!Semifinalists!!!</p>
<p>Can someone point to a link where I can see where good research got published (peer-reviewed journals, e.g., Science, Nature Medicine, etc)?</p>
<p>If you mean research articles in general, try Google Scholars, PubMed, Sciencedirect, or similar search engines. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yes, you will get a certificate, and it will be shipped to your house, sometimes along with some other small things as a way of saying “congratulations”. It won’t come for a while though.</p>
<p>My friend in high school applied and I was hoping that he would be a semi, but I found out this afternoon that he didn’t, which was :(.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>No. I meant some previous winners here might’ve published their research in peer-reviewed journals. I wonder if there is a place where they track if winners’ research got published.</p>
<p>^yes there are plenty of past papers. Search Peter Hu’s 2010 paper on google scholar search. There is also one about Erik Larson, the winner of intel in 2009.
There are links on Evanston High School’s on its past winners’ paper. There are also some sample intel-siemens semifinalist/finalist paper on “science buddies” website</p>
<p>Semifinalist! Congrats everyone!</p>
<p>I would also like to know what’s included in the prize package.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>same here on both counts. Also, is anything sent to our schools? (I know that Intel sends a package to the schools too)</p>
<p>semifinalist too 
haha</p>
<p>I believe its some tech stuff that Siemens makes. It changes every year. May be ipods/cameras/usb etc…</p>
<p>I heard they send a banner to our school? Is that true?? Who do they send it to and what else is in it?</p>
<p>hey guys!
i just got my semis package mailed to meeee - theres sooo much stuff!
apple tv, shirt, usb hub, usb bracelet thing, backpack, AND MOREEE
plus theres the usa today issue and your certificate; they send your banner to school</p>
<p>Lol I don’t know what I’m going to do with an apple TV. It’s not like I watch movies often…</p>
<p>^^ same here…I would have definitely preferred the camera they got last year. I can’t be complaining though =)</p>
