You will need to submit a proposal for your paper topic.  Each option has slightly different requirements.  Please read Final paper – overview and options for a full summary.  I have provided brief guidelines for the proposal below.  

You must obtain instructor approval for your topic choice. I will read your proposal and let you know if any modifications need to be made before you start to write/research your final paper.

Option 1: Find a popular publication or other popular media reference to a study on human evolution and then compare the original study with the popular presentation.

Option 1 proposal requirements:

• 1 A working title and a brief summary of the “popular study” you have chosen.
• 2 Who wrote your “popular study” or what venue was it presented in?
  • Give me a brief description of the publication, TV show, blog, or other popular venue where the study was mentioned.
• 3 When was your “popular study” published (aired)?
• 4 Identify the original study being referred to – title, author, where published

********************************

Option 2: Find an editorial or opinion piece on some aspect of human evolution, and see if you can find actual studies that support the editorial’s position/claims.

Option 2 proposal requirements:

• 1 A working title and a brief summary of the editorial or opinion piece you have chosen.
• 2 Who wrote your editorial and what venue was it presented in? Give me a brief description of the publication, TV show, blog, or other popular venue where the opinion was expressed.
• 3 When was your editorial published (aired)?
• 4 Identify the evolutionary principle(s) being referred to and a scientific study on that topic.

*********************************

Option 3: Write a traditional research paper on some aspect of human evolution.

Option 3 proposal requirements:

• 1 A working title and a brief summary of the topic you have chosen. Be sure to tell me how it pertains to human evolution.
• 2 Include at least one scientific study on this topic that you have already identified – title, author, brief summary.
• 3 Include at least three academic articles or books written on this topic that you have already identified – title, author, brief summary.

Biomedical Simulations Research

There have been many changes in healthcare informatics in the last years, and research has aided immensely in these changes.

In order to stay informed, you must become familiar with research, as the information obtained can assist you in staying abreast of the newest findings and products. One source for health care informatics research is MEDLINE®, which contains journal citations and abstracts for biomedical literature from around the world, and will help you quickly find the latest research findings on specific subjects.

For your initial Discussion Board post, please focus on the topic of biomedical simulations

Please include the following in your post:

• Include one research publication related to biomedical simulations.
• Explain what this publications details about biomedical simulations.
• How can understanding biomedical situations assist in your career?

Please reply to the original post below:

Original post– The microorganism that I chose for this week is called Dunaliella salina, or D. salina for short, is a microalga that is very useful in the biofuel industry, but is also used in cosmetics, and as a source of antioxidants in food (Cakmak, YS., Kaya, M., Asan-Ozusaqlam, M., 2014). D. salina is one species that shows many desirable traits for the production of biodiesel such as a high lipid accumulation, the absence of cell walls made from cellulose, the ease of laboratory culture with a high growth rate, and are highly resistant to varying environmental conditions as compared to other algae species (Ahmed, R., He, M., Aftab, R., Zheng, S., Nagi, M., Bakri, R., Wang, C. , 2017). D. salina also has an ability to adjust to changes in salinity, change its physiologic and metabolism which help to contribute to its high production of beta carotene (Ahmed, R., et al., 2017). D. salina is a green micro-alga that belongs to the halophile (halophilic extremophiles) family, the study of which is the field of bacteriology.  D. salina can store huge quantities of plastidic lips droplets, made up from TAG and two isomers of beta-carotene, during high levels of nitrogen deficiency making D. salina unique when compared to other algae (Ahmed, R., et al., 2017). Biofuels are becoming more popular in todays eco-friendly society, making D. salina a prime candidate for the extraction of energy by using algae. It is a renewable energy source that creates far less green house gases than the use of fossil fuels. Eco-friendly cities and cities that are overrun with smog, I.E. China, can use this as a viable option to help reduce the amount of pollution created every day. The production of D. salina and biofuels does require land to “farm” these biofuels, but the amount of land required is comparable to an oil refinery. The production of this type of energy source is not yet to a level that can compete in yield as compared to fossil fuels, but only the future can show us what is in store.

Topic:  Saccharomyces cerevisiae 

 You must discuss the above organism to tell what type of microbe it is, what helpful beneficial actions it performs and which subfield of microbiology it is involved in. The discussion should be well-written, in your own words, paraphrasing from only credible academic sources. You may not directly quote from your sources.  You must also cite your credible academic reference sources in text and provide full end ref information in APA format. The post must be at least 300-400 words 

 Please do not use Wikipedia or any other Open Source to support this college level work! 

 paraphrase from all sources as direct quotation is not acceptable in science writing.
