The link above will direct you to an UN-style report concerning Mosquitoes and the pathogenic microorganism they transmit from person-to-person. I discuss why and how GMO mosquitoes as the best solution to combat many epidemics and endemics.
The link above is a frontier paper about the effects of Lycopene and Trans-resveratrol on estrogen receptors and their possible role in decreasing myeloid-derived suppressor cells.

The link above will direct you to a lab report I completed to determine the Microbial Diversity of wet and dry soil in Prince Edward County.
Reflection Section: Writing effectively is important because it is a key mode of communication for other scientists and people interested in one’s study. Presenting my findings through words has always been a struggle for me but I have slowly made progress. The third artifact was completed in freshman year. It was an individual lab report that I struggled with because I could not put my thoughts in logical statements. I worked hard and got a decent grade but it taught me the importance of outlines. Outlines for scientific reports are essential for audience comprehension. For my second and first artifact, my group and I used multiple outlines and chose the best one, which resulted in a good grade. Outlines are important because it helps writers, researchers, and experimenters avoid messy reports and prevents confusion. It lays out a foundation that makes writing simple. Outlining is a skill, I believe, everyone needs and learning how to outline, from these artifacts, has trained me to be a better scientist and writer for the future.
