Biochemistry
This project focused on discovering how mealworms will be affected by Insect Growth Regulators, specifically focusing on the Juvenile Hormone Mimics pyriproxyfen, methoprene, and hydroprene.…
ISEF · 2016
This project explores how temperature affects the reproduction system of the Pilobolus fungus. The accuracy of its launched sporangia changes through altering the temperature that the fungus…
ISEF · 2016
This research began over three years ago. During the summer of 2012 numerous bare patches were noticed in the hills that were mined before reclamation was mandatory. The problem that is bein…
ISEF · 2016
While data consumption is on the rise, data centers continue to be of paramount importance. These power-consuming giants produce exorbitant amounts of heat, and while traditional air conditi…
ISEF · 2015
Every galaxy is predicted to host a black hole, but only those actively accreting matter, with luminous accretion disks, are considered active galactic nuclei (AGNs) or quasars. Recent model…

Translational Medical Science
For the past three years, the effectiveness of antioxidants on cell viability and bacterial growth has been tested. It was determined that the addition of antioxidants from black raspberries…
ISEF · 2015
Pellet Stoves have been around for many generations. They have generally been using wood as a fuel source. Although wood is a good fuel, this is a negative impact on the environment, and red…
ISEF · 2015
Electrical utilities must be able to accurately predict the power inputs into their grid so that these inputs can be balanced against the electrical demands on the grid. A common objections…
