UMW senior Hannah Frederick boiled a summer\u2019s worth of scientific research down to a single hypothetical question. Cool and collected, she asked a crowd yesterday: How can math be used to keep Eve from accessing online conversations between Alice and Bob?<\/p>\n

Despite the easy-to-digest synopsis, Frederick\u2019s project \u2013 Applications of Circulant Matrices Over Finite Fields for a Key Exchange Protocol \u2013 was packed with complex concepts, intricate formulas and implications for far more than a trio of imaginary people.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis could be amazing used in real life for things like online shopping and foreign intelligence,\u201d said Frederick, who got hooked on cryptography last spring in a class with Professor of Mathematics Randall Helmstutler. \u201cIt\u2019s just such an interesting topic.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was among 21 students chosen for their promise \u2013 and their curiosity \u2013 to take part in UMW\u2019s Summer Science Institute (SSI). The program gives undergrads an intense 10-week research experience and a jumpstart on projects they plan to continue during the school year. Participants spread out across the Hurley Convergence Center yesterday, using giant posters and oral presentations to show off their methods and findings at the SSI Research Symposium. Topics ranged from the clean up of diesel spills to pollution of marine life by plastic, from construction of cluster computers to the stress-causing effects of cortisol in zebrafish.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re looking for students who are really motivated with a high degree of curiosity,\u201d said Associate Professor of Biology Abbie Tomba, who coordinates the program with Assistant Professor of Chemistry Davis Oldham. \u201cThese are the students who end up in my office with really good follow-up questions, and that\u2019s important for a researcher.\u201d<\/p>\n

SSI pulls young scholars from six concentrations \u2013 biology, chemistry, computer science, Earth science, math and physics \u2013 into the lab for several hours a day to gather the momentum they\u2019ll need to really rev up their research in the fall.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving that foundation early on gets them ready to work independently,\u201d Oldham said. \u201cThey\u2019re not using time during the school year to be trained. They\u2019re building upon things they\u2019ve already done before.\u201d<\/p>\n
