section if you want to know about how to develop a research question.Identifying what you know and don't knowOnce you have narrowed the focus of your research and done some preliminary background research, the next step is to identify gaps in your knowledge. These gaps will be useful in developing your research question. To do this, ask these two questions about your research topic: What do you already know (if anything) about your topic? What do you not know, but are curious to learn about, as it

The goal of these programs is to provide early stage students first hand experience with cutting-edge research in a range of departments, including Biology, Chemistry, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, and more. These summer research experiences for undergraduate’s (REU)’s are ten-week research-immersion internship programs…
to predict and analyze biological functions sufficiently to understand complex biological phenomena, reprogram cells to perform new tasks, and prevent diseases. Students from a range of majors are encouraged to apply, including biology, bioengineering, chemistry, chemical engineering, ecology, environmental science, physics, computer science, statistics, or related engineering fields. BioXFEL REU: Hosted by IBB, students in this REU will engage in hands-on research studying the structure

Why do we evaluate information In a world full of information that is steeped in algorithms, for-profit motivations, and biases, how do we determine the truth? And how do we know which information
was reputable. Some disinformation or propaganda has been delivered by withholding information and deceiving the public, news outlets, and even researchers (Example: oil companies withholding important climate change data whilst supporting climate denier movements). Evaluation Methods Consult this section for different methods to evaluate information sourcesWho, What, Where MethodUse this method when encountering sources that you don’t know much about or when you are doing research in a topic that
