Logistics of Paper Sign-Up and Presentation

Once you have decided on a paper for your presentation, please "reserve" it by signing up on the class list. If you would like to discuss a paper not on the list below, please email it to the instructor’s email list with a brief description.

As you prepare your talk be sure to follow the class guidelines for oral presentations in this class.

Day 6 presentations will begin after lab work is finished. The entire class session on Day 8 will be devoted to presentations.

Paper Options

The list of papers below is provided as a guideline for the types of papers that might be relevant for your presentation. You are not limited to the primary research articles on this list. The list is provided simply to give you an idea of the kinds of subjects that could make suitable presentations for the class. Search PubMed yourself to find articles of interest to you.

Note: Some of these articles are open access, with full text online as linked in the following citations. Other papers, whose full text is available only to subscribers or subscribing institutions, are linked below to the abstracts.
