the latest health research by students

Rooted in a vision of empowering the next generation, the High School Health Research Forum cultivates a space for students themselves to explore vital health topics. Members engage in rigorous inquiry, share their work verbally, and author original research that highlights the passion of every contributor. Alongside fostering academic excellence, the Forum works to encourage young minds to connect global trends in healthcare with the issues closet to their hearts, or issues that exist in local realities.

Featured Research

HSHRF research is dedicated to learning more about human health through a diverse range of mediums, including papers, projects, presentations, and more - all while valuing the importance of youth voices in health research.

Research thrives on the foundation of collaboration and shared ideas. At HSHRF, the most interesting discoveries and innovations emerge when students come together to exchange insights and work collectively. The forum not only encourages individual growth but also cultivates an environment where creative, shared knowledge drives forward the future of health research.
