What did YOU do for your high school science projects??

This kid (<--link) found a possible cure for Cystic Fibrosis...you know, just your average 16-year-old.  Amazing!

  • That's pretty darn cool.

    You know, my high school didn't even have science projects or science fairs or anything. No way to do stuff like this unless you had some access to a lab outside of school. I totally rocked my elementary school science fair though. One year I experimented with electronics and made my pink barbie jeep remote controlled. While Barbie was riding in style, it's not quite the same.

    That's amazing. I hope it works on humans as well as it did in the lab.

    We had to do a biology product in 10th grade but we couldn't do anything with living things other than fruit flies so most of us tried to grow different types of plants in different soils or whatever. Basically, it was awful, and my experiment didn't work despite the teacher saying it would, and all my plants died, so my mom and I went to the plant section of K-Mart and bought the same plants in various different sizes and took pictures of them to attach to the paper and then I wrote up the report as though the experiment had worked. (Cool story bro.)

  • I compared two different brands of fertilizers on the same type of plant.

  • I think i did a test on which fabric softeners made towels the most "fluffy".  Science wasnt really my strong suit, lol.

    KByte- I love your sig!

    DX: PCOS/Recurrent losses/MTHFR mutation (compound hetero)
    5 hysteroscopies/2 surgical
    3 Inject IUIs = 2 m/c's and 1 BFN
    IVF #1= BFP. m/c at 7w6d. Needed 2 D&C's and scar tissue removal. Mild OHSS
    IVF #2 = BFP. Severe OHSS. 4 Drainings. TWINS!
  • That's amazing, I hope they are able to continue the research and prove it will be effective in humans. CF is a gene that runs in my family, and I have a close cousin living with it. Thankfully I'm not a carrier, but it's extremely exciting to think they might be close to a cure.

  • Now I'm just annoyed that a bunch of you had high school science projects. There is clearly something wrong with the high school I went to.
  • We didn't have them either. But in elementary school I won 2nd prize for comparing the growth of seeds (can't remember what I was growing) in a sponge with fertilizer, soil, and soil with fertilizer. The kid who won first, I don't remember what he did but it was obvious his parents did the whole thing, I was pissed.
