Four Croatian high schoolers have returned from a recent science conference in Moscow with a handful of medals, the daily Jutarnji List writes.
Filip Bzik, Viktoria Belobradic, Gabriela Clara Racz and Ines Kovacevic won awards at the International Conference of Young Scientists for their discoveries in life and environmental sciences and experimental physics categories.

Bzik showed that proteins can have a positive effect on the prevention of common eye illnesses, winning a gold medal in the life sciences category with a project he started while volunteering at a laboratory in St. Louis (United States).
Belobradic won a silver medal for discovering that "light" cigarettes are more harmful than their "normal" counterparts.
Racz received a silver medal in the experimental physics category, while Kovacic was recognised for her research in life sciences.
All youngsters were honoured by Zagreb’s Mayor Milan Bandic and will be guaranteed entry to one of five Zagreb universities, daily Jutarnji List writes.
