This investigation models the effects of antivenom concentration in the treatment of snake venom toxicity in humans.

Great and insightful topic, well done
This is a masterclass in data storytelling! The student managed to take a complex biochemical concept and make it accessible through the “Molecular Scissors” analogy without losing scientific accuracy. Good job!
Well done project with lots of supporting notes in your labbook. I learned a lot about snakebites and antivenom from reviewing this project and I am certain you did also! Be sure to continue participating in science fairs and learning more about the world around us in the process!
