The grand prize winner of this year's Google Science Fair was 17-year-old Brittany Wenger from Florida who developed an app that helps doctors diagnose breast cancer.
Wenger's neural network was 4.97% more accurate than commercial networks. Her network will improve with more data and can be adapted for use with diagnosing other types of cancer.
Wenger won $50,000 in scholarship money, an internship with a science fair sponsor and a trip to the Galapagos Islands.
