STEM Project (Freshman Year)

In the STEM Academy, we are currently working on a Spring project to present to the Board of Education, our peers, and anyone who wants to come. I decided that I wanted to research the four different types of Lupus, and how they affect the human body. I want to do my project on Lupus because I would love to be a Doctor in the future, so there's no better way to work at my career than to start as early as possible. I started research on Lupus when my Mother informed me that one hof her best friends has the disease, and how she thought it'd be a good idea to inform everyone on what Lupus does to you. So far I know that Lupus is a disease in which your body's immune system attacks your body. I was also informed by my Mother that there are four KNOWN types of Lupus, meaning that there could be more.

Lupus

Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease in which the disease carrier's immune system attacks the body's tissues and organs. It is proven that more women get this, than men. There are four types of Lupus; Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, drug-induced Lupus Eruthematosus, Discoid Lupus Erythematosus, and Neonatal Lupus. Lupus can inflame joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, heart and lungs.
