Middle school students from Maryland, Virginia and Washington gathered Saturday in Baltimore to present their visions of future cities capable of feeding themselves with urban farms.
A team from the Edlin School in Reston, Va., bounced out of the Baltimore Museum of Industry carrying first-place trophies and big smiles after judges bestowed the top prize on their imaginary city, Fortuna. A team from Garrison Forest School in Owings Mills won second place with their city, Esperanza. And Agriville, the city built by Immaculate Heart of Mary School in Towson, landed the students' choice award.
The Future City competition is sponsored by DiscoverE, an engineering advocacy organization. The theme for this year's event was "Feeding Future Cities," which challenged students to grow one protein food and one vegetable in urban settings.
Teams from 19 schools in the organization's Mid-Atlantic region have been working since September to write 1,000-word essays about their cities, craft computer simulations and build large-scale models using budgets of $100.
The Reston, Va., team's victory landed it a spot in the national competition in Washington, scheduled for Feb. 15-18. The team used a 3D printer to produce biodegradable plastic pieces that made up the bulk of the buildings they used for their model. The team, led by student Rayyan Khan, 14, devised a concept to grow food in labs using stem cells from chicken and kale.
"The hard work paid off," said Shaila Khan, the team's adviser.
The Garrison Forest School squad "grew soy beans in vertical farms" in skyscrapers and salmon in fish hatcheries, said Serena Shafer, 13.
The Immaculate Heart of Mary School's team envisioned an Illinois city on the shores of Lake Michigan called Agriville, said Abby Slovick, 13. The model featured farming inside skyscrapers and hydroponic facilities to grow crops year round, Slovick said.
The model also featured an "edible park" of apples, pears and cherries, said Darby Brandenburg, 13. And the city's power was generated by two windmills, including a 2,000-foot-tall represented in the model by a standing electric toothbrush, said Aysia Davis, 12.
The two foods the Towson team decided were best for future sustainability are not typically counted among children's favorites: spinach and soybeans.

DAVIS, CA (KOVR) - Researchers at UC Davis say they are one step closer to finding a cure for HIV in a breakthrough study for millions around the world living with the virus.
At 60 years old, Paul Curtis looks like the picture of health.
I exercise, eat well get a lot of rest, he said.
But 30 years ago, Curtis was diagnosed as HIV-positive. Doctors told him he might have a year to live, but he's proven them wrong.
With this disease, it's imperative that you take the medications consistently, Curtis said.
He relies on medication daily. At one point he took more than 40 pills a day. And he can't miss a dose.
The virus mutates rapidly when you miss doses, he said.
He's one of millions worldwide waiting for a cure. Previous studies have come close, but none have proven to fight off the virus with stem cell therapy.
Dr. Joe Anderson says he has developed genetically modified human stem cells, which have resisted infection in mice.
When we infected the mice that had these HIV-resistant that had these HIV-resistant immune cells in them, we saw that HIV infection was blocked, he said.

A Winnipeg-based company that has touted its ability to improve the lives of Multiple Sclerosis patients through stem cell therapy is now under the microscope after allegations of fraud from a client.
The CEO of Regenetek Research Inc. has been collecting thousands of dollars from Canadian patients looking for help. Some of the patients are now questioning the research and credentials of the man they know as Dr. Doug.
One of them is Lee Chuckry, 47. He has been living with MS for nearly two decades.
MS just keeps progressing, thats what it does. Hopefully I could stop it. That was my ultimate goal, Chuckry said in an interview with CTV News.
His efforts led him to Regenetek, and its CEO: Doug Broeska.
In testimonials, MS patients attributed miraculous medical improvement to experimental stem cell therapy. For $35,000, Regenetek patients were flown to India for the procedure.
Chuckry was one of the participants. But when he returned home, he says his symptoms worsened.
When he started digging deeper, he said, he found the doctor hed put his faith in wasnt what he claimed to be.
Im going to call Doug a con artist, Chuckry said. You are preying on people who are desperate. They are looking for hope of any sort.
Chuckry and at least one other patient have gone to the RCMP. They allege Broeska, who claims to hold a PhD and a Bachelor of Science, is a fraud who is operating as a medical researcher without proper credentials.
