Michael Viscardi - Siemens-Westinghouse Competition

" Michael Viscardi, 16 years old, formed a theorem which characterizes all such domains for which the resulting solution is rational - namely in terms of their Riemann maps and their Bergman kernels, updates Lejeune Dirichlet. He is home-schooled by his mom, who has a doctorate in neuroscience. When he was 13, he began to outsmart his mother at math and began taking courses at the University of California at San Diego."
