This was a senor prep course that looked into big picture ideas in the biological sciences and our own future goals after graduation. The semester project had us practice writing out a full length research proposal for a a topic of our interest. I examined tumors and possible treatments with modern techniques currently being developed. I focused on developing a study that would expand on work done with rodent models but focus on canine models to find a better treatment for brain tumors. I obtained great experience in scientific writing and poster presentation, but most importantly it required me to design and imagine my own experiment before being able to perform any actual studies.
