Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Hello there, I have to prepare a project for my science fair and was interested in working on “Drugs & Genetics: why do some people respond to drugs differently than others.” This looks like a research project to me but can I use it in my science fair? I don’t have to do any experiments, I’ll be researching the database online so will it qualify as a project for science fair?
Thanks

Dear candy234,

I would encourage you to talk to your teacher/supervisor/mentor because each science fair has specific guidelines that the participant must follow. Is the science fair at your school? If not, if you could provide the name of the science fair, I could try to help you more.

Thanks a lot. Yes, it’s at my school.
