Why Aren't All Medicines Pills?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
No one likes shots, so why don't we swallow all our medications? In this science project, you will use a model to explore one challenge behind making medications we can quickly swallow, using insulin (a medication taken by some diabetes patients) as an example. Will your medication be functional after spending time in an environment similar to the stomach? Read more
Does Color Affect Taste?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
You might have heard the saying "The eyes eat before the mouth." The appearance of food, especially its color, certainly affects how we perceive its taste. But can your eyes actually change the way you taste something? In this science project, you will find out by investigating how people perceive the taste of different colored apple juice. How do you think color affects taste? Read more
Wearable Limp Detection Device
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Have you (or anyone you know) ever sprained an ankle or broken a leg? It might have taken some practice to walk again after recovering from an injury. Some people might even need to work with a physical therapist. In this project you will program a wearable device to recognize when someone is limping instead of walking normally.  Read more
Do You Have the Willpower to Taste Something Sour?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
If you developed a super-sour candy, drink, or dessert, to whom would you sell it? Do people of all ages love sour, or is there a difference between the sour preferences of kids and adults? In this mouth-puckering science project, you will find out by making batches of lemonade that vary in their sourness and have volunteers taste them! Read more
Motor Imagery Visualization's Impact on Fine Motor Skills for Space Flight
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
In this science experiment, you will model and test how visualization of a task can change the accuracy of your fine motor skill performance. You will use the small muscles in your hands to model how your body would perform on Earth versus a space launch. Read more
Astronaut Stress Management Training for Space Flight
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Training for space flight isn't just a physically demanding job. You need to be prepared mentally and emotionally, too! In this science project, you will test how a breathing technique can improve your fight-or-flight response induced by the stressors of space flight. Read more
Minding your Mummies: The Science of Mummification
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever seen or heard of the movies The Mummy or The Mummy Returns? Mummies have always played a part in nightmares for Western cultures, but in ancient Egypt, mummification was a serious religious ritual. They believed that preserving human remains was necessary so that the previous owner could enjoy the fruits of the afterlife. In this science fair project, you will learn about the rituals and science of mummification by mummifying a hot dog. Read more
Make a Communication Aid To Help People Show Their Feelings
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Have you ever tried to communicate with a baby or toddler who cannot talk yet? What about another kid or an adult who cannot speak due to a medical condition? There are many ways we can communicate without speaking, like writing or using sign language. We can also use technology to help make it easier to communicate. In this project you will program your own communication aid to help someone who cannot speak show their emotions or simple messages.  Read more
The Taylor Swift Challenge
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
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? Read more
Fighting the Flu: How Your Immune System Uses Its Memory
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Being sick is no fun, especially when your friends are doing exciting activities that you have to miss out on. Thankfully, common illnesses usually last for just a few days, and then you start to feel better. Why is this? It is thanks to the immune system, which is a group of special organs and cells in your body that constantly work to keep you healthy. In this science project, you will make a simple model to investigate how the immune system defends the human body from common illnesses, and… Read more
