Welcome to the NovaCo
Five-Borough Science Fair.
[APPLAUSE]
I'm Ron Elgin, chief
advancement officer for NovaCo.
And I'd like to introduce
our judge for the festivities.
Let's give a warm welcome
to Dr. Max Goodwin.
- [APPLAUSE]
- Thank you guys.
Thanks for having me.
Thank you to Ron and to NovaCo
for putting this together.
This is amazing.
When I was your age,
I built a can crusher
for my science fair,
and it was not the coolest.
I didn't win, but it did crush
cans like nobody's business.
So I'm very excited to see
what neat things you guys
have come up with.
- Let's judge.
- [APPLAUSE]
It's about automated segmentation
for color quantification
in African cichlid fish.
Interesting.
QUESTION: Should I still be the judge
if the only word I got there was fish?
I got a college lab to let me use
- their -D printer for accuracy.
- Oh. Good for you.
Looks expensive. Sorry.
Wow, even the old volcano guy
is crushing it.
This is amazing. Smoke and everything.
Even dinosaurs. Very cool.
Picking a winner won't be easy.
Yeah, what about a -way tie?
Is that a turnip?
- I grew it myself.
- Not the flashiest entry.
You'll change your mind when
I tell you how this turnip's
- gonna fix the world.
- Okay.
Imani Moore, bring it on.
So this is a smart suture.
It's what most American hospitals use.
It's coated with sensors that
are like tiny thermometers.
Infection raises temperature,
so when your wound's heat goes up,
it uses smartphone technology
to alert your doctor.
We have these at our hospital.
They're super cool, right?
Unless you live in a place where
your doctors can't afford smartphones.
Then the smart suture's
a dumb piece of thread
that knows you might die
but can't tell anybody.
Yeah, that does seem less cool now.
Suture number two:
No sensors, no thermometers.
Made from a common turnip. And it knows
if you have an infection
just as fast as the fancy one.
Infection doesn't just change
a wound's temperature.
It also changes its pH.
And the natural pH level
of a turnip-infused suture
will, upon infection, change color.
So when it does, you go to the doctor.
See, smart sutures need phones,
high-speed Internet,
, microscopic thermometers.
I just need a root vegetable.
Imani, this could save lives.
How did you come up with this?
I'm a first generation
immigrant, Dr. Goodwin.
Surgical site infections
in impoverished countries
are nine times higher than in America.
That's some ripe you-know-what,
so I'm gonna fix it.
P.S., if I win, I plan to use
the prize money to help pay
for Banneker Medical School,
which would get me a big step
closer to my goal.
And what is that?
Like I said, I'm gonna fix the world.
Oh.
Any new life-changing announcements
- I should brace myself for?
- Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I just spent
my first full night at Max's.
And it was eye-opening.
Okay, if you think I can be bought off

Gladys, can you put these cases
back on my rotation, please?
Sure. Who should I assign them to?
- Wandy.
- I see.
You helped her.
You worked your Iggy magic on her.
No. No magic.
- So what changed?
- Nothing.
Not a thing.
I just... I can't expect her
to have all the answers when
I don't have them myself.
- Oh sh**t.
- What?
I didn't know that having all
the answers was required of us.
Maybe I should pack my bags
and go knit with my retired
aunts in Tallahassee.
That's a really
strange alternative, but okay.
And I know Raul doesn't
have all the answers,
so he should probably stop
training the nurses.
Okay.
Clever, thank you. I get it.
I mean,
you didn't actually think
you had all the answers,
did you?
Uh, yes, I did.
Did Wandy think she had all the answers?
Yeah, I think she did.
Then it seems like a lot changed today.
Or...
I could assign these cases to a
really wonderful shrink I know.
No.
Wandy's ready.

we offer classes in microfinance,

Of course. Um, Rahul...

You did all this for me?
You earned it.

There was so many this week.
I couldn't keep them all
straight in my head.
I mean the nightclub sh**ting
after the...
high school sh**ting and then the...
warehouse sh**ting.
And Monday was that sh**t
at the grocery store near my place.
I see him around
my neighborhood all the time
with his wife and his two girls.
He was just picking up groceries,
just living his life.
It could've been you.
It could've been me.
It's everywhere.
I used to feel...
outrage.
You know what?
I used to think
it didn't have to be like this.
We don't have to live like this.
But now,

Your place tonight.
