RULES

The 2007 Mobile Regional Science & Engineering Fair will follow the same rules as the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. These rules are available online at: http://www.sciserv.org/isef/about/rules_regulations.asp.

One exception is that we will not accept УTeamФ projects

Each student is allowed to enter only one project.

There is no limit on the number of student entries from a single school.

To get started, use the ISEF "Rules Wizard" at http://www.sciserv.org/isef/students/wizard/index.asp

All application packets must be post-marked by February 16th, 2007. All application packets must be complete.

All students should display an abstract with their project. Abstracts should be no more than 250 words and should include the (a) the purpose of the experiment, (b) procedures used, (c) data collected, and (d) conclusions. Abstracts should not include acknowledgments of work or procedures done by the mentor.

Each student in the Senior (High-School) Division should display a project data book and a research paper with their project.

The following forms must be completed if circumstances warrant their completion:

	Form (1C), Registered Research Institutional/Industrial Setting Form must be completed by the scientist supervising your research if the research is performed in an Institutional/Industrial Setting.
	Form (2), Qualified Scientist Form, must be completed and signed prior to the start of your experimentation if your project involves animals, controlled substances and pathogens or recombinant DNA and humans.
	Form (3), Designated Supervisor Form, must be completed prior to beginning your project if the Qualified Scientist is unable to supervise the experiments or for projects using hazardous materials or devices.
	Form (4A), Human Subjects Form, must have been completed prior to experimentation if the research involves humans.
	Form (4B), Informed Consent Form, is recommended for all projects involving human subjects and required for all such projects involving risk.
	Form (5), Non Human Vertebrate Animal Form, must have been completed prior to experimentation.
	All projects using viable fresh tissue, organs, human or animal parts, including blood, blood products, teeth, primary cell cultures, and body fluids require Form (6), Human and Animal Tissue Form, be completed prior to experimentation.
	Projects which are a continuation of a previous year's work and which require approval must be re-approved prior to experimentation for the current year.

Copies of all forms relevant to your project must be submitted together with your application. Keep the originals, but bring them to the fair.

Failure to comply with the above ISEF requirements will result in disqualification.

Now came the extremely
two more opportunities
Meanwhile
Even though
Several incidents happened
Early in the morning
To avoid the dreary
Slept while passing
Great Headquarters
at last had a chance to see something
At nine, we left for Panderma
