What is CABS?

This site will help high school students and teachers find original, independent science research topics and questions that can be done without a professional lab...these can be done in a school lab or even in one's basement! The project ideas and research questions being developed and presented here have been vetted and could lead to true discoveries, and not just finding already known results. See our Welcome message. These are the types of projects that could be done and submitted to high school contests such as the Regeneron Science Talent Search, Junior Science and Humanities Symposium, or the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair, and be competitive. If you have an idea to share, or a question about one of the project ideas, contact us at vondracekm@eths202.org.

Pages (on the right side of the screen) have lists of ideas for different types of science research projects, and clicking on one of those ideas will take you to posts with details and all sorts of information about that type of project. Get more information about why there is a need for CABS!

A great message from a former NASA astronaut for STEM students - how to think about making the world a better place through STEM

 Many of us are not familiar with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, established in 2015. These are 17 goals most nations of the world agreed to work on and make significant progress in by 2030, and most of them will require STEM to develop viable solutions to make a better, more sustainable world for humanity. 

To make a different kind of connection with the mindset, skills, knowledge, and approach to work on the SDGs, check out the thoughts of former teacher and astronaut Ms. Dottie Metcalf-Lindenburger. She talks about how her training and experiences in NASA overlap with what we all need to make progress in creating a better world for future generations. This video presentation comes from the SOS4Love Project, and was presented at the 2020 UN Peace Week last week. Please check it out!
