Pioneer Research Program

I got accepted in the Pioneer Research Program, one of the most prestigious research program for high school students, for Summer 2023. I have worked on a research paper applying Game Theory in the area of Venture Capitalist decision making, under the guidance of Professor Brendan Daley, Associate Professor of Johns Hopkins University. My research paper titled “Posted Price versus Auction models in Venture Capital Industry” was conducted over 2.5 months starting from July 2023 and ending in September 2023. The paper was evaluated at the highest level “A” with “Excellent” ratings in all the 4 attributes of a scholar, slating me in the top 5% and as “one of the best encountered in the program”.
