Topics in Biology

As an assignment in my Topics in Biology class we are to create a blog and keep it posted with our progress. For this class we are required to go in depth into a topic in biology that interests us. I choose to research genetic diseases and genetic testing. After researching we are going to write a paper that could be taken out of a scientific journal, which is intimidating because the people who write articles in scientific journals are doctors with MDs and PHDs and I am only in high school. After we finish our papers we will be working of an hour long presentation about our topic. Finally we have to expand our topic beyond the classroom but I am not sure what that really means yet. So that's Topics in Biology and really the focus of my blog for now.
