Jack Andraka gives a talk in September 2015, “Jack Andraka:
The Hidden Innovator” for Wired for Wonder.
In the early part of the video he addresses anti-nerd and
ant-gay bullying (the latter may follow the former) in middle school.
He presents many illustrations from his progress toward his
pancreatic cancer test, which won a big science fair award in Pittsburgh in
2013 when he was 16.
Toward the end he presents ideas, which he works on at
Stanford where he now enters his junior year, toward using naontechnology to
deliver anti-cancer drugs or to even detect early cancers. One can imagine, from the illustrations, his
getting together with Reid Ewing and making an animated film using manga or Danganronpa
characters interacting with nanobots inside the human body
