I’m Rishav Jha, a 12th-grade student and independent researcher from Mumbai, India, passionate about physics, technology, and making STEM more accessible. My work spans black-hole physics, quantum decoherence, AI, and educational technology. I was a Regeneron ISEF 2026 finalist in Physics & Astronomy, an IRIS National Science Fair silver medalist, and have participated in international research and innovation programs. Beyond research, I enjoy building practical projects and sharing what I learn with other students. I currently conduct free STEM and research-skills workshops for students from underserved communities through organizations in Mumbai. I believe curiosity should not depend on access to expensive labs, elite institutions, or privileged backgrounds. As an ambassador, I hope to connect with students worldwide, exchange ideas, and encourage more young people to explore science not just as a subject, but as something they can actively contribute to.
