Ok, so for my grad school class, I have a big semester-long project, and I have to come up with an idea for a topic. The assignment is to pick a biomedical subject and present it to two different audiences (for example, doctors and patients, adults and children, doctors and medical salespeople). I was going to do diabetes and present the information to children and adults, but that turned out to be the example that the professor used in class (it figures!
), and I don't want to seem like I couldn't come up with a topic of my own (even though I can't
). So now I'm kinda stuck. The idea I've been kicking around for a couple of days is to use asthma as my topic and present it to newly diagnosed kids and their parents, but I'm not sure how relavent that's going to be. My other idea is genetic testing, but I'm not exactly sure how/to whom I should present it.
So, to get to the point, here are my questions:
(1) Do any of you have asthma? If so, do you feel like you've gotten enough information about your condition? Is there anything in particular that you would like to know about it? (This way I can explain why I chose this particular topic...if people feel like they don't need further explanations, it might seem kind of pointless for me to do this project.)
(2) Any ideas about who would be interested in genetic testing besides people with a family history of certain diseases?
(3) Are there any other health/medicine topics that you are curious about that might make for an interesting project?
Thanks for your help!
Help! I need ideas for a paper topic...
