Blood Clotting to the Rescue: How to Stop Too Much Blood from Flowing

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever had a cut or a bloody nose that seemed like it would bleed forever? Though it might have seemed like a long time, it probably did stop pretty quickly. This is because different factors in a person's blood normally work together to plug the opening caused by the cut in a process called blood clotting or coagulation. However, some people have a genetic disorder called hemophilia that causes them to bleed excessively. If a person has hemophilia, he or she is usually missing some of… Read more

Do Different Dilutions of Disinfectants Affect the Development of Bacterial Resistance?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

This is a project that illustrates the process of natural selection in action. You'll need access to a laboratory for working with the bacterial cultures used in this project. Read more

Can Visualization Improve Your Sports Performance?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Did you know that athletes use visualization of sports tasks to score the winning shot in sporting games? Check out how much visualization impacts your precision in sports with this science project idea. Read more

Make Your Own Stethoscope

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Doctors use many complicated tools to check the health of patients. But you can make some medical tools at home—like a stethoscope! A doctor uses a stethoscope to listen to a patient's heart. In this science project, you will make three of your own homemade stethoscopes and figure out which stethoscope design works best and why. Read more

Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Gaming?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever heard someone described as a video game addict? Do you think video game addicts actually exist? You can determine that for yourself in this science fair project by examining real data from a California research scientist for over 3,000 video game players! Read more

Using AI to Detect Proper Exercise Form

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

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. Read more

Does a Cell Phone Conversation Affect Reaction Time?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Does talking on a cell phone make one a more dangerous driver? Here is an experiment you can do to investigate whether reaction time is adversely affected by a simultaneous phone conversation. Read more

Sleep Tracking: The Brain and Circadian Rhythm's Role in Sleep

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Everybody sleeps, but not everybody has good quality sleep. Sleep is essential for the brain, but how do our daily choices impact sleep? In this science project, you will experiment and explore factors that influence your nighttime sleep schedule. Read more

How Much Sugar Is Really in That Soda?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

You know there is sugar in non-diet soda, but just how much sugar? Sure, you can look on the ingredients label, but how do food scientists actually measure the amount of sugar in a solution? They use a simple scientific device called a hydrometer. The hydrometer floats in the solution that is being tested, and the higher it floats, the more sugar there is! In this science fair project, you will use a precision hydrometer to measure the amount of sugar in soda. Read more

Make a Mood Tracker

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

How do you feel right now? Do you remember how you felt a few hours ago? How about yesterday or last Wednesday? What if you could track your emotions throughout the day and use this information to help improve your mood and well-being? In this science project, you will program a simple, pocket-sized device that you can carry around with you to log your feelings whenever you want or on a specific schedule. Read more
