WABR was founded a decade ago to educate the public on the value of biomedical research for the health of both humans and animals. The past ten years have been a magnificent implementation of that goal.
Biomedical research is a commitment to life.
Much remains to be done. Each month covers a different health or science topic using coloring, writing and drawing activities related to the monthly theme. Topics include Infectious Disease, Aging, Diabetes, Dental health, Body Organs and Transplantation, Poison Control and Product Safety. The Lucky Puppy Developed by the North Carolina Association for Biomedical Research, this coloring workbook designed for young children tells the story of how medicine used to help an ill family puppy was made possible through research on mice. Developed by our North Carolina affiliate, this 17 page illustrated booklet is a lively presentation of the basic steps in the science inquiry process that lead to lifesaving research breakthroughs.
