Create and Test Your Own Hydrogel Face Mask Recipe!

Science Fair Project Idea

Engineering Design Process

Have you ever tried a beauty face mask? Cosmetic face masks are skin care products that promise rapid hydration of your skin to make it look younger and more radiant. Hydrogel face masks are made of jelly-like materials that are infused with special ingredients to nurture your skin. The ingredients for cosmetic products like face masks are carefully selected by cosmetics chemists. Each product is designed to have the properties that are necessary for its intended purpose. In this science… Read more

When Your Sniffer Snoozes, You've Got Olfactory Fatigue

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

The holidays are a wonderful time, when lots of good foods and good smells come from the kitchen. But have you noticed that if you stay in the kitchen awhile, you no longer notice the delicious smells? Don't worry! Your nose is not broken, you are just experiencing olfactory fatigue—basically, that's when your nose takes a nap. But what is behind olfactory fatigue and what happens when you experience it? Does a person's sense of smell "get tired" in the same way for different smells? Put… 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

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

Bioprinting: 3D Print with Living Cells! No 3D Printer Required.

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Do you get excited about 3D printing technology? Do you like to think about other applications for this technology? 3D printing techniques can also be used with living cells, a method called 3D bioprinting. In this science project, you will explore 3D bioprinting a gelatinous substance with plant seeds. This process is similar to real 3D bioprinting techniques being explored to create tissues and organs. Read more

Pedigree Analysis: A Family Tree of Traits

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Some characteristics, like the shape of your hairline or whether your earlobes are attached or detached, are inherited from your parents. In this science project you will see how writing these characteristics onto a family tree can help you determine how they are inherited Read more

How Can Vaccines Be Used to Fight Outbreaks?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Stopping a viral outbreak like COVID-19 takes more than luck, it takes public health tools. Vaccines are considered to be one of the best public health tools, which is why there is often a rush to develop good vaccines for newly discovered viruses, particularly those that have the potential to infect lots of people. Recent examples include COVID-19, Zika virus, and Ebola. If enough people are vaccinated, an effective vaccine can help stop outbreaks or even eradicate (completely get rid of) a… 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

Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions— What Affects Their Rates?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by factors of at least a million. Now that's acceleration! This project investigates how temperature affects how fast these enzymatic reactions occur. Read more

Measuring Antimicrobial Effectiveness with Zones of Inhibition

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you heard that garlic powder is supposed to inhibit the growth of bacteria? Which do you think would make a better disinfectant: a solution of garlic powder or a solution of bleach? This project shows you a straightforward way to compare the effectiveness of different disinfectants (or other antimicrobial agents), by measuring zones of inhibition on a culture plate. Read more
