Chemistry
Objective: Acetaminophen (APAP) should ideally be absorbed in the small intestine, but up to 15% of the drug is released in the stomach, resulting in suboptimal delivery. This study evaluate…
ISEF · 2026
Cellular and Molecular Biology
Cancer and autoimmune diseases present an immunological paradox: T cells adopt opposing functional states. In cancer, T cells become dysfunctional and lose effector function, failing to elim…
CYSF · 2026
Our project is about the principles, energy, and modern stuff of hydraulics. In this project, we are also demonstrating a model of a water wheel

Physics and Astronomy
The assembly of Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) is commonly attributed to hierarchical mergers at low redshift, yet the mechanisms governing their early-universe growth remain poorly quant…
CYSF · 2026
This project looks at how plastic pollution in the ocean might be affecting where marine animals live, travel and migrate, using real life datasets.
ISEF · 2026
Cellular and Molecular Biology
RET (Rearranged During Transfection) is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) that is frequently altered across multiple cancer types. One such alteration is KIF5B-RET, a fusion oncogene that dri…
