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!

Science History - The 'creation' of the western science spirit

 Check out this truly interesting article outlining the start of the modern science approach, coming from Greece some 2500 years ago. Anaxagoras, whom I cannot recall ever reading about, came to Athens, Greece, and may have interacted with Socrates, who of course had the pupil Plato and then Aristotle, to develop the philosophical foundation of Western society. Anaxagoras was a prominent figure in having an off-shoot or purely philosophical reasoning to natural philosophy, which is a term that lasted millennia until we changed it to science! 

Let's appreciate the geniuses from SO long ago. I wonder how many of our names will still be remembered in the year 4521! That's wild to think about!
