WHAT'S THE POINT OF BIOSCIENCE RESEARCH?

NCABR’s popular middle school publication, What's the Point of Bioscience Research?, an updated version of What's the Point of Biomedical Research?, speaks directly to adolescents about the relevance and importance of biomedical research and product testing to their lives. Updated in 2007, this 20-page booklet uses a comic book-style format to tell a story of teens who come to understand through injury or illness the significance of scientific research.
