obstacles that are holding back the advancement of science. As such, a lab-based research thesis will give me the opportunity to critically think and apply what I learned so far academically and professionally to find solutions to the unanswered questions that lie at the scientific frontline. This experience will also allow me to further develop skills that will help me advance and excel towards my career in clinical research and medicine. Specifically, my interest in Dr. Matthew Holahan’s lab…

The research packet and article undoubtedly improved my writing for the better. I have done research in the past for other courses; however, I have never done an in-depth research packet and article. I came across some challenges when I first started researching my topic. The first challenge that I came across was finding good sources of information.

It is imperative that protocols regarding ethics be in place to protect individuals who elect to take part in research studies. Mills and Gay have provided a thorough explanation of the obligations of those performing educational research (2016). Two major ethical considerations our authors mention that take effect for all research studies are: (a) no harm of any kind should come to participants as a result of taking part in a study, and (b) researchers must obtain informed consent on behalf…
