A new "Einstein" appears in America. He is 13 years old and received his university studies at the age of nine!

A 13-year-old boy has been accepted into a Physics Ph.D. program at the University of Minnesota, USA, after obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Physics and Mathematics.

The parents of Elliot Tanner, who many describe as "Little Einstein", are seeking to secure $20,000, after they accepted their son at the University of Minnesota, to complete his studies.

According to Elliot's mother, Michelle, her son's attachment to science appeared at the age of three, as he suddenly learned to read easily, and showed a love for numbers.

"I have a passion for physics, which I consider to be the most preferred science for me, as I teach it to university students as well," Elliott was quoted as saying by the British newspaper, "Daily Mail".

According to Michelle, her son completed the high school curriculum in two years at home, and began receiving his university studies at the age of nine.

"Although he has grown up quickly unlike other children, he is still very young to me. I hope that he will continue his education and achieve the highest degrees," Michele added.
