Saudi girls in science at the Innovation Expo, Riyadh

I went to a youth-oriented science expo this week. It included exhibits by young scientists including this nice young lady (photo with her permission of course). She's a high school senior and her invention is an apparatus to extract energy from the status electricity generated by cars. She had an actual working model. Saudi girls have to wear the veil but they are increasingly well educated and ambitious.
