Taylor Swift famously got in shape for her three-hour-long Eras Tour concerts by singing all 40+ songs...while running on a treadmill! Have you ever tried running while singing at the top of your lungs? How hard do you think it is? In this science project you will measure the impact talking and singing have on a group of volunteer runners. Is anyone in better shape than Taylor Swift?

Have you ever wondered how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be used to improve human health and medicine? Computers can now identify human joints as key points to track our body movements. They can then use this information along with training data sets to show us if we perform exercises safely, to prevent us from getting injured. Create your own data set and test out if your algorithm can reliably detect good and bad exercise form.

Did you know that your heart beats at different rates depending on what you're doing? The more physically active you are, the faster your heart beats. You can measure the rate your heart is beating by taking your pulse. This science fair project will show you how to take your pulse and help you investigate which daily activities get your heart beating the fastest.

Remembering to take medication or perform a test regularly, consistently, and at specific times can be difficult for elderly people with short-term memory loss, or teenagers absorbed in activities. With mobile devices becoming our constant companions, could a smartphone or tablet offer a solution?
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has created a simple tool making it possible for anyone who has a computer and Internet access to create a reminder app. It is easy, quick, and…

Have you ever stopped to wonder why we have two eyes, but we only see one image? Usually you only see one image because your brain takes the information from your left eye and your right eye and combines them, without you even noticing! But sometimes your brain is too smart for its own good; it makes assumptions (or guesses) about the things we are seeing. When your brain makes guesses it can sometimes make mistakes, as it does in this experiment!

Have you ever had to adjust to a new time zone and noticed that it takes a while before you start to feel normal again? By shifting your sleep and activity schedule, you have altered the pattern of your body's circadian rhythms. Human beings, like many other living things, have a number of internal processes that show a distinct circadian rhythm. The most obvious is our sleep cycle, with activity during the day, followed by sleep during the night. Circadian rhythms have also been demonstrated…

As Valentine’s Day approaches, we’re increasingly confronted with stylized images of the heart. Real hearts serve very important functions – a person’s heart beats to supply blood to their entire body, and the heart has to work harder when they exercise. Have you ever wondered how quickly your heart beats when you exercise, or how long it takes to recover back to its normal rate after you’re done exercising? In this science activity, you’ll get to do some…
