What are Addiction Science Projects?
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) supports most of the world’s research on addiction, working with some of the world’s foremost researchers in neuroscience, behavior, pharmacology, physiology, genetics, epidemiology and medicine. Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF) categories that are likely to include Addiction Science projects include: BEHAVIORAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCES (Code: BE); MEDICINE & HEALTH SCIENCES (Code: ME); and CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY (Code: CB). However, any science fair project that contributes to our knowledge of addiction and its health consequences will be considered for the NIDA Science Fair Award. All projects eligible for a NIDA Science Fair award must be conducted under the supervision of a science teacher or science mentor deemed qualified by a science teacher. All ISEF rules for experiments apply (see the ISEF Rules Wizard at http://www.sciserv.org/isef/students/wizard/index.asp.) What ISEF Study Areas Apply to the NIDA S
