Filipino prodigies ready to shine at the 2nd Int'l Nuclear Science Olympiad in Malaysia
A contingent of promising young Filipino nuclear science enthusiasts departs for Malaysia today to represent the Philippines at the 2nd International Nuclear Science Olympiad (INSO) to be held July 31 to August 6, 2025 in Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia.
Following the successful hosting of the inaugural International Nuclear Science Olympiad (INSO) in the Philippines in 2024, the competition now moves to Malaysia for its second leg. The 2nd INSO aims to continue its vital mission: advancing nuclear education and fostering global collaboration in the peaceful applications of nuclear science and technology.
Team Philippines for INSO 2025 comprises a quartet of bright young nuclear science prodigies, namely Wins Keinrich Chen of Saint Jude Catholic School, Shaun Mannix Yap of Saint Jude Catholic School, Jeremiah Auza of Philippine Science High School - Central Visayas Campus, and Nouel Christian Amaguin of Manila Science High School.
These exceptional students are accompanied by their dedicated coaches from the Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (DOST-PNRI) who have meticulously prepared them for this international challenge. Along with participants from various countries, the Philippine contingent will undergo both experimental and theoretical examinations during the Olympiad.
Building on the success of the 1st INSO in 2024, the team aims to likewise obtain golds and silvers to take home.
Last year, the Philippine team secured two gold and one silver medal even as Mohammad Nur Casib of the Philippine Science High School-Central Mindanao Campus was named "Nuclear Ambassador" for obtaining the top score overall.
This Olympiad serves as a crucial platform for promoting international cooperation among students, educators, and experts in the nuclear field while facilitating the exchange of knowledge and ideas to drive innovation. Likewise, it also aims to deepen the youth’s understanding of nuclear science, encouraging future careers in this critical field and raising global awareness of its diverse applications and paramount safety.
INSO is seen to inspire and nurture the next generation of scientists and engineers. The Olympiad is designed to engage young minds in challenging problem-solving and critical thinking activities. As such, it ultimately helps them develop leadership skills vital for societal progress.
The DOST-PNRI family sends off the team with high hopes as these young students vie with other fellow Olympians who are all considered as the cream of the crop in the field of nuclear science and technology on the global stage.
