Grant Roseman of Jackson, 15, receives a hug from his cousin Lucy Allen of Kelso, 9, after Roseman took the top honor in the 63rd annual Southeast Missouri Regional Science Fair on Tuesday, March 5, 2019, at the Show Me Center in Cape Girardeau. At 8-and-a-half years old, Roseman was bitten by a tick causing him to develop an allergy affecting his ability to eat the meat of mammals. The experience led the Jackson resident to conduct an experiment to see how different ticks, including the tick which caused his allergy, react or are attracted to carbon dioxide. The project earned him the fair's top overall honor enabling him to travel to Phoenix in May to compete at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. Although this was his first year participating the science fair, he said he plans to one day go into an engineering field. "I've always liked to solve problems," he said.
