After a competitive evaluation process, the following winners were selected:\n\nFirst Place: Krish Tripathy\u2019s \u201cPulmo Lens \u201d | Woodward Academy\n\nSecond Place: Michael Wang\u2019s \u201cTen8Link\u201d | North Gwinnett High School\n\nThird Place: Linh Do\u2019s \u201cAce AP STEM\u201d | Fulton Science Academy\n\n\u201cCongratulations to Krish on winning first place in this year\u2019s Congressional App Challenge! His innovative design provides an effective way for patients and health care professionals to improve detection of pneumonia, showcasing how coding can address real-world challenges,\u201d said Clyde. \u201cI\u2019d also like to congratulate Michael and Linh for their impressive skills and creativity, as well as to thank the team at Strategic Logix for serving as this year\u2019s judges for the Ninth District.\u201d\n\nFirst Place: Pulmo Lens by Krish Tripathy\n\nKrish Tripathy, a Sugar Hill resident and senior at Woodward Academy, was inspired to create Pulmo Lens when a family member was hospitalized for pneumonia after the infection had gone undetected. Pulmo Lens is a deep learning-based web application that helps health care professionals detect pneumonia from chest X-rays faster and more accurately. When a user uploads an image, the app processes it in seconds and displays both the original X-ray and a heatmap that highlights the areas most likely to contain pneumonia.\n\n\u201cPulmo Lens represents my vision of combining coding and compassion,\u201d said Tripathy. \u201cPulmo Lens strives to help doctors act sooner, save more lives, and make early detection easier and reliable for everyone.\u201d\n\nTripathy\u2019s app will be exhibited at the 2025 #HouseOfCode celebration in Washington, D.C., where students from across the country gather to share their work with Members of Congress, technology leaders, and industry professionals.\n\nSecond Place: Ten8Link by Michael Wang\n\nLinh Do, a Buford resident and junior at Fulton Science Academy, designed Ace AP STEM to help high school students taking AP STEM courses. The platform not only helps students solve individual problems, but it also strengthens their conceptual understanding, critical thinking, and long-term mastery of AP STEM subjects.\n\nBackground\n\nFirst launched in 2014, the Congressional App Challenge is the official computer science competition of the U.S. House of Representatives. The competition encourages students to create and submit their own app for the opportunity to receive national recognition.\n\nStudents may participate as individuals or in teams of up to four. Congressional App Challenge winners will have their app featured on a display in the U.S. Capitol and put on the U.S. House of Representatives\u2019 website. Additionally, winners will receive an invitation to the #HouseOfCode celebration on Capitol Hill.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:09:11Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://clyde.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=3377"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.263580285012722, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
