Personal life

Burhanpurkar was born in Orillia and completed high school in 2016 at Barrie North Collegiate Institute.[1][1] She is currently an undergraduate student at Harvard University.{{citation needed|date=February 2019}}

Career

At the age of 10, Burhanpurkar built a microbiology lab in her family basement and began conducting scientific experiments after volunteering in a hospital in India.[2][3] Two years later, she developed an intelligent-antibiotic which selectively kills pathogenic bacteria such as E-coli but preserves intestinal microbiota.[4]

When she was 13, she received the Platinum Award at the Canada-Wide Science Fair for her work on the cardiac and gastrointestinal safety of two Alzheimer's drugs.[5][6] Burhanpurkar was inspired to study the safety of Alzheimer’s drugs after the death of her grandfather from Alzheimer’s disease.[7][8]

At the age of 14, Burhanpurkar conducted fundamental physics research for which she was again awarded the Platinum Award at the Canada-Wide Science fair.[9] She made the first physical detection of absement with a team in Steve Mann’s lab, competed at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair,[10] and was selected as a regional finalist for the 2013 Google Science Fair.[11][12]

She filmed a documentary on the effects of climate change on Inuit communities featuring Chris Hadfield and Margaret Atwood after an expedition to the Arctic which received the international Gloria Barron prize.[13][14][15][16]

In 2013, Burhanpurkar was named one of Canada's Top 20 Under 20.[17] She was a recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal (2012)[18] and was the Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year (2010).[19]
