Nice click bait-headline you have there.

Try: Ten year-old reproduces Georgetown University professors moth experiment in butterflies under remote instruction and parental supervision. Results demonstrate persistence of trained behaviour across generations, does not explore method of transmission.

Writes a long report and gets invited to entomology conference. The professor gets university support for attending international conference and follow up blog interviews.

Ten year old declines to pretend to want to become an entomologist. States a more financial minded goal of Veterinarian, instead.
